This was our dinner tonite on my BF's night to cook. In his words, this was "easy, simple, quick". We didn't use any peppers, but used a sliced onion instead. Didn't have any shredded cheese to mix in, so we just melted a slice over the top. We had a cucumber and onion salad with this, but also think pasta salad would be good. Made for a very satisfying but very fast meal. Thanks!

    Wonderful! So simple and yet so tasty! My family loved it. Even my picky son. I added in the rest of a jar of flame roasted sweet peppers. I think it worked out to about 1/2 to 3/4 cup. This will be repeated in our house many times!

    Easy & delicious. Fast, too, because I cooked the peppers in the same skillet with the sausage - I also added some diced onion because it seemed to go with it. Served on french rolls.
