Cook time: 20 mins
Total time: 25 mins
Ingredients
- 8 oz hot Italian Sausage
- 1 cup sliced onion
- 1 cup sliced red bell peppers (1/2 large)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 cups fresh greens (spinach, turnip greens, mustard greens, etc)
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp hot diced green chiles
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, lightly brown the sausage while breaking it up into small chunks. Drain off excess fat.
- Add onions and bell peppers and saute until soft, about 5-7 minutes. You can cover it with a lid, stirring every minute or so. Stir in garlic and cook another minute.
- Add the greens, 2 tbsp water, and cover with a lid. Cook over medium low heat, stirring every couple minutes until greens are fully cooked, about 5 minutes.
- Add the vinegar and green chiles. Blend well and serve.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Commentary:
This is a great combination of flavors, along with being quick and simple to make. Plus it's a complete meal in itself. This is a Paleo dish, nutritious, and versatile - either as a main dish or a side dish. Increase the greens or cut the sausage in half if you want it to be a side vegetable dish that just uses sausage for seasoning.
This is one of those dishes I like to throw together when there's little time. I always have sausage, spinach and bell peppers in the freezer. Plus I find it satisfying without being heavy. Hope you enjoy it!
