HOMEMADE SWEET ITALIAN SAUSAGE (MILD OR HOT)



Homemade Sweet Italian Sausage (Mild or Hot) image

This is a very versatile Italian sausage which can be used in many different ways. You can take it from mild to hot and it's very easy to use. There are also different options for type of meat to use, like ground chuck or ground turkey (do not use ground beef). If using ground turkey, you'll have to coat your skillet with a little olive or veggie oil before cooking as it has very little fat and will stick to skillet.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality Italian sausage for the best flavor. Look for sausage that is made with fresh, natural ingredients and has a good fat content (at least 20%).
  • Brown the sausage well before adding it to the casserole. This will help to develop the flavor and prevent the sausage from becoming dry.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in the casserole. This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients. Some good choices include onions, peppers, mushrooms, zucchini, and spinach.
  • Don't overcook the casserole. The sausage should be cooked through, but the vegetables should still be slightly crisp.
  • Serve the casserole with a side of crusty bread or pasta. This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.
