Italian Peppers, Onion and Sausage

 


Talk about making your mouth water! The aroma from this dish is utterly amazing. However, I recommend a simple variation/substitution which is slightly healthier. I do not like eating sausage because it is so hard on the digestive system and is loaded with saturated fat.

Therefore I suggest trying chicken sausage or turkey sausage, but look for the All Natural or Organic brands because most non-organic brands have sodium nitrates (usually the last ingredient listed) which is not good for you at all. Read more about my take on organics on my simpleitaliancooking blog and why organic doesn't always mean healthy.

Serves: 4-6 depending how much you make.
