    Pan fry it with some zucchini, yellow squash, onions, green and yellow bell peppers. Season with your favorite seasonings.

    Italian Sausage & Potato Roast

    Prep: 10 min Bake: 30 min
    Serves: 4

    1 small yellow bell pepper, seeded, cut into strips
    1 small green bell pepper, seeded, cut into strips

    ¾ lb red potatoes, cut into bite sized pieces

    Turkey Sausage Stuffed Peppers
    6 servings
    Ingredients
    • 6 large bell peppers, tops cut off, seeded (I use red peppers)
    • 12 ounces hot Italian turkey sausage links, removed from casings
    • 1 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
    • 4 plum tomatoes, chopped (have used canned diced tomatoes when I don't have fresh)
    • 2 cups instant brown rice
    • 1 cup chopped fresh basil (I used 1 T dried basil)
    • 1 cup finely shredded smoked cheese, such as mozzarella, Cheddar or Gouda, divided
    Preparation
    1. Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler.
    2. Place peppers cut-side down in a large microwave-safe dish. Fill the dish with 1/2 inch of water, cover and microwave on High until the peppers are just softened, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain the water and transfer the peppers to a roasting pan.
    3. Meanwhile, cook sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until cooked through, about 5 minutes (you can add garlie & onion if you like). Stir in broth, tomatoes and rice; increase heat to high and bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the rice is softened but still moist, 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand, covered, until the rice absorbs the remaining liquid, about 5 minutes.
    4. Stir basil and half the cheese into the rice mixture. Divide the filling among the peppers, then top with the remaining cheese. Broil until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
