Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

  

• 2 sweet potatoes, cubed
• 2 c. butternut squash, cubed
• 1 red pepper, diced
• 1 yellow pepper, diced
• 1 small white onion, diced
• 2 c. baby spinach leaves (or kale)
• 22 Italian sausages (vegan or regular)
• 1/4 c. fresh basil, chopped
• 1 T. Italian seasoning
• 1/4 tsp. garlic salt
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• black pepper, few dashes
• extra virgin olive oil (or spray)

Method

 

Roasting the Sweet Potatoes and Butternut Squash

1. Preheat oven to 425 Degrees F
2. Using a potato peeler, remove the skins of potatoes and squash (and seeds in squash)
3. Cut potatoes and squash into small cubes and place in a large bowl
4. Mix potatoes and squash in olive oil, garlic salt and powder, Italian seasoning, pepper, and basil
5. Spray a cookie sheet with oil and spread potatoes and squash over the pan
6. Roast in the oven for 40 minutes until cubes are soft (but not mushy). You can parboil the potatoes and squash for quicker roasting.*

The Sauté

1. While potatoes and squash are roasting, in a large skillet on the stovetop over low heat, sauté onions, peppers, spinach, and diced sausage until the sausage is cooked, onions are translucent, and peppers are soft. (Note: Add in 2 T. water to help soften peppers)
2. When potatoes and squash are roasted, place them into the skillet with the sauté and cook for another few minutes
3. Serve hot, or refrigerate the mixture and serve later

Notes

*You can parboil the potatoes and squash for quicker roasting. However, it’s actually easier to cube and roast!

This dish pairs well with eggs, meat, chicken, or with or in a green salad.

Make it with VEGAN sausage or traditional sweet Italian sausage.
