Cook’s notes:

I let the sausage and the vegetables flavor this dish during cooking. I have used many different types of turkey and chicken sausages for this dish. One of my favorite types of sausage to use is an apple wood smoked chicken sausage.

When I serve this dish, I have salsa and hot sauce handy for those who want it.

*Reheat left overs in the microwave for 45 seconds.
