🌭 Sausage, Onions & Peppers 😍

Juicy, savory sausages cooked with sweet caramelized onions and colorful bell peppers in a delicious blend of garlic and Italian seasonings! This classic comfort-food favorite is easy to make, full of flavor, and perfect for a busy weeknight dinner. Serve it over rice, with roasted potatoes, or tucked into a warm hoagie roll! ❤️

Ingredients:

* 1½ pounds Italian sausage, mild or hot
* 2 large bell peppers, sliced (red and green)
* 2 medium onions, thinly sliced
* 3 cloves garlic, minced
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* ½ cup chicken broth
* 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
* ½ teaspoon paprika
* ½ teaspoon black pepper
* Salt, to taste
* ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
* Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
* Hoagie rolls, for serving (optional)

Instructions:

1. Brown the sausages: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides. They do not need to be fully cooked yet. Transfer to a plate.
2. Cook the vegetables: Add the remaining olive oil to the same skillet. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
3. Add the garlic: Stir in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, if using. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
4. Combine everything: Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up the flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
5. Simmer: Return the sausages to the pan. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 10–15 minutes, or until the sausages are cooked through and reach 160°F (71°C) for pork sausage or 165°F (74°C) for poultry sausage.
6. Finish and serve: Taste and adjust the seasoning. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve hot with your favorite sides or in toasted hoagie rolls.

Tip: For extra flavor, let the onions and peppers cook a little longer until lightly caramelized. A splash of balsamic vinegar can also add a delicious sweet-tangy finish.

❤️ How do you like your sausage, onions, and peppers—served over rice or piled into a toasted sandwich roll?

🍓 Classic Strawberry Shortcake 😍

Nothing says summer like a homemade Strawberry Shortcake! ❤️ Sweet, juicy strawberries, fluffy homemade biscuits, and clouds of freshly whipped cream come together to create this timeless dessert. Every bite is light, creamy, and bursting with fresh strawberry flavor. It’s an old-fashioned favorite that’s perfect for family gatherings, picnics, or a special sweet treat!

Ingredients:

For the strawberries:

* 1½ lbs fresh strawberries, sliced
* ⅓ cup granulated sugar

For the shortcake biscuits:

* 2 cups all-purpose flour
* ¼ cup granulated sugar
* 1 tablespoon baking powder
* ½ teaspoon salt
* 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
* ⅔ cup cold heavy cream
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 tablespoon heavy cream, for brushing
* 1 tablespoon coarse sugar, optional

For the whipped cream:

* 1 cup cold heavy cream
* 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method:

1. Prepare the strawberries: Place the sliced strawberries in a bowl with the sugar. Stir gently and let them sit for 30–45 minutes until juicy and syrupy.
2. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
4. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
5. Add the cold heavy cream and vanilla extract. Stir gently until a soft dough forms, being careful not to overmix.
6. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a ¾-inch-thick circle. Cut into 6–8 rounds using a biscuit cutter.
7. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with heavy cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar, if desired.
8. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool slightly.
9. Make the whipped cream: Beat the cold heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft, fluffy peaks form.
10. Assemble the shortcakes: Slice each biscuit horizontally. Spoon the strawberries and their juices over the bottom half, add a generous dollop of whipped cream, and place the top half over it.
11. Finish with extra strawberries and whipped cream. Serve immediately and enjoy every delicious bite! 😋

Tip: Keep the butter and cream cold for tender, flaky shortcakes. For the best flavor, use ripe, sweet strawberries.

Zucchini Chicken Alfredo

Yields:
1 Serving

Ingredients:
4 oz grilled or baked chicken, sliced or diced
For Alternative Pasta:
1½ cups yellow squash and/or zucchini when cooked
1 tsp olive oil
¼ tsp dried basil
Alfredo Sauce:
½ cup 1% cottage cheese
½ tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp Kraft grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
Fresh ground pepper, if desired

Directions:
Prepare your squash. You can peel your squash so that it resembles pasta or leave the peel on to add more color to the dish. I like to leave it on because the peel has extra fiber that can regulate your digestive system. Cut the ends off and discard. Next decide which gadget you want to use to make your noodles. Measure out 1½ cups.
Add 1 tsp olive oil to a medium skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add spiraled squash to the oil and cook until squash gets tender for about 3 minutes. Add basil and any other additional seasonings such as salt, pepper, or garlic powder if desired. Put on a plate and set aside.
To make Alfredo sauce, combine cottage cheese, garlic powder, Parmesan cheese, almond milk and pepper in a small blender until mixture is smooth and creamy. Pour into a microwave safe dish and heat until warm (about 45 sec to 1 min), stopping the microwave every 15 seconds to stir. Make sure the cottage cheese doesn't get too hot because cottage cheese and heat do not mix well. It will start to separate, get stringy, and watery. Once it was mixed with the squash and chicken, I had no problems with it when re-heating.
Place cooked diced chicken over squash noodles and then pour warm sauce on top. Enjoy!
