Ingredients
- 4 sausage links smoked, Italian, or chicken sausage, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 bell pepper sliced (any color)
- 1 zucchini sliced into rounds
- 1 yellow squash sliced into rounds
- 1 small red onion sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional: Grated Parmesan cheese or fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the Skillet: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the Sausage: Add the sliced sausage to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Sauté the Veggies: In the same skillet, add the bell peppers, zucchini, squash, red onion, and cherry tomatoes. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp.
- Season: Sprinkle the veggies with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Combine: Return the sausage to the skillet and toss with the vegetables. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to combine flavors.
- Serve: Garnish with Parmesan cheese or fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot.
Notes
- Swap the sausage for a vegetarian option or tofu for a plant-based version.
- Use any veggies you have on hand, such as broccoli, mushrooms, or asparagus.
- This dish pairs well with rice, quinoa, or crusty bread for a more filling meal.
