Sausage and Peppers
Italian Sausages & Peppers
Anytime I am on low carb diet, this is my go-to dish. Italian sausage smothered down in a tomato sauce…..yum! If you aren’t on a low carb diet, this goes great served over rice. If you don’t want to use Italian sausage, you could use a chicken sausage as well. You will still get the great flavors. Get 1 pound of Italian sausage and cut them into 1-2 inch pieces. You can use mild or hot sausages, they both work well.
To brown the sausage, add 1 tsp of vegetable oil to the pan Once the pan is hot, add the sausage. To the sausage, add 1 tbsp onion powder, 1 tbsp garlic salt, 1 tsp Accent and 1 tsp cajun seasoning.
While the sausage is browning, slice 1 green and red bell pepper into thin strips, or julienne style.
Add the bell peppers and 1 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes to the pan.
Since tomatoes are high in acid, add 1/2 tsp of sugar to cut the acidity. Stir well and cover. Cook for 20-25 minutes or until the veggies are soft and the tomatoes have reduced.
Serve as-is or over rice. ENJOY!
