turkey sausage bowls

Perfect for meal prep or work lunches. Smells strong in the office microwave so beware. Serves 4.

  • 2 tbs olive oil

  • 1 pound precooked, skinned sausage of your preference cut into slices (I like turkey)

  • 1 small onion, diced

  • 2 of the following options:

    • 1 cup fresh or frozen peas/carrots/corn

    • 1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained

    • 2 cups fresh or frozen broccoli florets

  • 1 cup uncooked rice/quinoa

  • 2 cloves minced garlic

  • 1 tsp onion powder

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

  • shredded Mexican cheese to serve

In a medium pot, cook the rice or quinoa to package directions.

Heat a large skillet over medium and add the olive oil. Add the sausage, onion, and garlic and cook until the onions are soft and the sausage begins to brown.

If using frozen, steam the veggies in the microwave. Add the veggies and the beans to the pan, cover, and cook about 5 minutes.

Add the spices and cooked rice/quinoa. Cover and cook until everything is heated through.

Add shredded cheese to serve.
