SAUSSAGE AND PEPPERS

---

This Sausage and Peppers dinner is full of Fresh Italian Sausage stuffed with bell peppers and onions, more bell peppers, simmered in traditional pasta sauce and served with pasta. A quick and easy dinner that your kids will surely love!

My first experience with Sausage and Peppers was in 1998, Brooklyn New York. I was visiting my uncle for the summer and his wife made it for dinner, it was Ah- Maz- IN! Of course I requested it every time I visited after that, it was that good.

I decided to introduce this meal to my kids and it was a hit! The first time I made it for them, I added onions and tomatoes but as it became a popular item on our table I decided to keep it simple. When I stumbled on the fresh Italian sausage in the supermarket, already stuffed with bell peppers and onions, dinner was a 'no-brainer.

HOW DO YOU MAKE SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS

Heat oil and cook sausage. Remove sausage, add onions and sauté, then add bell peppers. Cook for about two minutes, then add back sausage and your favorite pasta sauce.

Cook at medium heat, my heat was a bit high but I enjoyed the charred bits! We had it with pasta but it also pairs well with rice!
