Sausage and Peppers
Sausage and Peppers combines precooked sausage rounds with thinly sliced red and yellow bell peppers and onions tossed in olive oil, garlic, and Italian seasoning, then roasted until tender with slightly browned edges. The baking method softens the vegetables while crisply caramelizing the sausage edges, creating a savory, balanced dish. It works well served alongside rice or pasta or made into a hoagie sandwich with melted provolone and toasted buttered rolls.
