SUPER-EASY SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS

Super-Easy Sausage and Peppers image

A simple and delicious way to serve sausage and peppers with a tomato-based sauce. This is one of my husband's and kids' favorite meals. They like it served over rice because it makes a lot of 'gravy' that soaks into the rice. It 's one of my favorites because it's quick, easy, and has only a few ingredients that I usually have on hand.

Tips:

Choose high-quality sausage: Opt for fresh, flavorful sausage that is made with minimal additives.
Use a well-seasoned skillet: A well-seasoned skillet will help to prevent the sausage from sticking and will also add flavor to the dish.
Cook the sausage over medium heat: Cooking the sausage over medium heat will help to ensure that it cooks evenly and doesn't burn.
Don't overcrowd the skillet: When cooking the sausage, make sure not to overcrowd the skillet. This will help to prevent the sausage from steaming instead of browning.
