This meal was cooked for new year after seeing all the Italian blogs with lentil and sausage recipes I got craving it and round foods are supposed to be good luck or so they say :-) It was easy to make and so good for you. Some of you may have made new years resolutions and since we are now going into February maybe even struggling. I must confess I never really make them and I feel its best to eat healthy all year surrounding yourself with a network of supportive like minded people.
Ingredients:
- one pack of chicken sausages or any of your choice
- one cup of brown lentils
- 1/2 a red onion chopped
- 1/2 a red pepper chopped
- one small zucchini chopped
- one small can of tomatoes
- 4 cloves of garlic chopped
- salt to taste
Method:
- boil the lentils for about 20-30 minutes until cooked and set aside
- saute onions and garlic in olive oil for about 5 minutes
- add the red pepper and zucchini for about 7 minutes until soft
- add the can of tomatoes
- then add the chopped cooked sausage and lentils and simmer for 15 - 20 min
- serve with polenta
We returned home from the huge what seemed like a round the world trip last night, so good to be home and excited to get cooking again, thanks for joining us
Hugs
