Smoked Sausage & Potato Bake

This is one of my favorite meals to make for our family and for friends that have just had babies, etc. It's easy and inexpensive to throw together, kids will eat it no problem (smoked sausage resembles hotdogs for those with super picky eaters), it's packed with veggies and protein, and, this might be the best part, it only takes one dish to make.


Ingredients |
5-6 red potatoes
2 sweet potatoes
1 package smoked sausage (I usually buy Hillshire)
1/2 bag of frozen broccoli florets
1 green pepper
2-3 handfuls of Brussel sprouts
EVOO
Rubbed Sage
Salt & Pepper
Garlic Powder

First prep your veggies: cube potatoes, chop peppers, half Brussel sprouts, and slice smoked sausage. The great thing about this dish is you can use any vegetables that you have or like - zucchinis, onions, butternut squash, asparagus, anything really. The above ingredients are just what I used most recently (though, I'll admit I'm the only one in my family that likes Brussel sprouts. Sad face.)

Once everything is chopped and prepped, lay on a baking sheet, drizzle with EVOO and sprinkle with rubbed sage, garlic powder, sea salt, and pepper. You can also change out the herbs for this - oregano and basil are two of my other favorites. With your hands mix everything together to make sure everything is coated with EVOO and herbs.

In a 400 degree oven, bake for 45-50 minutes are until the potatoes are cooked through and everything has a good crunch. I like to eat mine with BBQ sauce because I'm addicted to sauce.

Enjoy!

There Is Enough Time

When I became a new mom of two, my mom gifted me a book she read when she became a mom called 'There is Enough Time.' It was really old, an "original." It was written in the fifties is what I'm saying. I read most of it and nodded my head in a agreement a few times but mostly, it felt so irrelevant. Raising kids in the 50's was very different than it is now. But here's what I've noticed since I've been holed up with my kids for the last two weeks (yep, tonight is my 14 day mark), there is enough time. It's been forced upon us, yes. Something we Americans don't like - how dare the government tell us what to do? (gasp!) - it's like we got grounded because the neighborhood bully got us in trouble. But when all the "fun stuff" got canceled - the sports, the plays, the parties, the people - we were forced to reevaluate our days. It turns out, when you have nowhere to go there is enough time. Enough time to dance, to go on fam...

20 Meals for $200

Good Evening! World's worst blogger here. (Seriously. I will never be consistent here, folks.) But I have some meal prepping for you: 20 meals for less than $200. I'm not sure the exact amount because I bought groceries for the week and a year's supply of baking ingredients (for all the Christmas goodies) and frankly, I don't want to do the math. But it's definitely in the just under $200 ball park. Let's get started... Menu | Simple Spaghetti & Meatballs Tuscan Chicken Cajun Smoked Sausage & Rice Pulled Pork Pork Tacos Teriyaki Salmon Vegetarian Chili Chuck Roast Winger's Chicken and Waffles Southwest Chicken Y'all. These are the most simple meals to throw together. Because Christmas. And I'm not going to busy myself being extra when I want to enjoy the holidays. It took me about an hour. Grocery List | 2 packages of spaghetti noodles 2 packages of rigatoni 1-2 cartons of broth (this is to add to the meals when cookin...
