Ultimate Grilled Beer Brats, Peppers, Onions, Relish and Kraut

These are so easy, no clean up with the best flavor ever. The brats, peppers and onions are simmered in the beer on the grill in a pan and then the brats finished on the grill. Good grilled rolls, sauerkraut, pepper relish and dijon mustard to finish it off. -- posted by SarasotaCook

Terrific and Tasty Tidy Friday Pan Fry!

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 17:41:32 -0400

Another BRILLIANT idea from Nigel Slater and his new programme, "Simple Suppers". I love the idea of this, and can see all sorts of possibilities for what to "raid" from the fridge at the end of the week. I like his suggestions for bacon and bangers, and especially when served with crisp, green cabbage. An excellent, hearty supper dish and one that would be great for the children too - the greens being "hidden" amongst all the spuds, bacon and sausages etc! (By Nigel Slater. From Nigel Slater's Simple Suppers.) -- posted by French Tart

Andouille Sausage and Peppers Marinara

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 13:53:45 -0400

This is a "wow" recipe that I created last night. I had been wanting to try Andouille sausage and finally found it at a local grocery. It gives this dish just the right "kick" to spice up your dinner, though feel free to add some red pepper flakes if you really like it hot! My husband took one bite and said "you have got to write this recipe down"! -- posted by Blos

Portuguese/Spanish One Pot

Wed, 16 Sep 2009 13:51:03 -0400

This is something I kind of made up one day when I was craving a comforting food...it uses spanish rice, but also has linguica sausage in it, and tomatoes, which are popular in portuguese cooking. I prefer the spanish rice mix by Near East, as it has no MSG, whereas the Rice A Roni version does. -- posted by Chef #517222

Vendange Harvest Sausages With Grapes, Thyme and Wine

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 14:05:46 -0400

A traditional Italian or French dish--called 'Salsiccia all'Uva' in Italian-- typically served from large vats at Vendange autumn grape harvest celebrations. Quite popular here in the Southern California Wine Country, as well! Preferably use a meaty best quality pork sausage which is lean and not highly seasoned (allow 1 or 2 sausages per person). I like to use a mixture of sweet and hot Italian sausages or local smoked chicken and apple sausage, but any good meaty sausage will do. Serve piping hot with potatoes or pasta, assorted cheeses, a good baguette or rustic peasant bread, and a bottle of the year's new vintage Beaujolais Nouveau or Gamay Beaujolais wine! -- posted by BecR

Felix's Lasagna

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 14:49:51 -0400

I started with a recipe a friend gave me ages ago and adapted it to what I had and what I felt like eating. You could add some onions or garlic to the meat mixture if you felt like it, or use something other than mushrooms (or leave out that part entirely) if you don't want them. Whatever flavour or brand of spaghetti sauce is your favourite will work, as long as it's not one of the ones with meat. Excellent served with garlic or other crusty bread and a green salad. What I'm calling prep time is stove-top cooking time, and cooking time is time in the oven plus sitting time. -- posted by Felix4067

This is loosely adapted from Judith M. Fertig's recipe in Prairie Home Cooking. The original did not have any cheese or herbs. Either sweet or hot sausages will do; I've also made it with bratwurst. This is a very easy dinner, very nice for cold weather. -- posted by Chocolatl

A Grape Picker's Lunch! Sausages and Lentils With Thyme and Wine

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 11:19:42 -0400

I am lucky enough to live in the Cognac and Pineau grape growing area of South West France - we also grow grapes for the excellent local (Charente-Maritime) wine in this area. Our woodman, Monsieur Jacquot, has a small chateau with several vineyards, and every year we are invited to join in on the first or last day of the "Vendange" - the grape harvest. And, every year, Madame Jacquot prepares and cooks the most delicious food for all of the grape pickers, family and invited friends. This year (2009) the harvest started on the 1st October, and this is the dish she made for us, served simply with fresh salads, assorted local breads, local butter, cheese and of course local wine, pineau and cognac. I asked her for the recipe and she rattled out the ingredients at a rapid pace, whilst I scribbled them down on the back of an envelope! I have recreated this recipe at home twice now, and this is ALMOST as good as hers is! (Mind you, she set hers out on long tables with white linen and beautiful old vintage crockery.......I found out that the white linen were bed sheets! NEVER used on a bed she stressed, kept for large gatherings.) The key to this recipe is SIMPLICITY and GOOD sausages and wine. I used local Toulouse sausages, meaty and with a high 85% meat content. But you can use ANY good, meaty sausages that you have available locally - I bet high quality venison or Angus beef sausages would be brilliant in this dish. Also, DO try to source Lentilles Vert de Puy green Puy lentils; they make all the difference to this wonderful harvest dish. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we did, sitting at the long table in the old barn, under ancient beams and with beaming faces and loud laughter. ( PS: I cut this recipe RIGHT back from 30 people to just 4! Please adjust the amounts to suit.) -- posted by French Tart

Potato/Green Bean/Mushroom Sausage Skillet

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 14:43:55 -0400

For some reason, this dish always reminds me of home (and my mom didn't even make it growing up....go figure). I usually have the ingredients on hand and it is a hearty dinner that goes together in a flash. This is usually my go to meal after a long day at the office. There really aren't measurements, so feel free to add/subtract as you like. I prefer a simple sprinkling of Greek Seasoning, but you may prefer to cater to your family's tastes. -- posted by TXmamacooks

Pork Sausage and Egg Casserole

This is an easy to prepare, tasty dish using simple ingredients...my family loves it! If you can't find the hash browns with onions already in with the potatoes, just saute 1/3 cup chopped onion and add that to the mix before baking. While I use a 4 cheese blend, cheddar cheese alone would be fine also...the cooked cheese makes a delicious crust in the casserole. Frozen hash browns would work too just thaw them before adding to the mix. Perfect for a brunch, we also love it for supper too! -- posted by Chef Learnee

The title says it all. Some in my family don't care for chunks of onion in meatloaf, so the use of onion powder and dicing the green peppers small take care of that. The mix of sausage with the ground beef is crucial, and the Worcestershire is the killer ingredient. -- posted by mammamia #2

We serve this with German potato salad, stuffed jalapenos, vinegary cole slaw and sauteed onion and green peppers. Add a hot crunchy kaiser roll and you've got heaven!

Cassoulet With Lots of Vegetables (Mark Bittman)

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 17:26:41 -0400

Cassoulet is one of the best of the myriad of traditional European dishes that combine beans and meat to produce wonderful rich, robust stews. This recipe maintains that spirit, but is much faster, easier, less expensive, and more contemporary, emphasizing the beans and vegetables over meat. (That probably makes it more, not less, traditional, since meat was always hard to come by before the mid-twentieth century.) The main recipe starts with already cooked beans or canned beans and is ready relatively fast. To begin with dried beans, see the variation; it takes more time, but the results are even better. -- posted by Nado2003

Measurements can be altered to taste. If you like spicy, savory add more, if not, add less. The salsa gives this quiche a nice kick and the flavors of cilantro, sausage and potatoes add to the taste and textures. This is a family favorite in my house. Great for overnight company as it feeds alot. Serve with sliced avocado, sour cream or salsa on the side. -- posted by Vseward (Chef~V)

Feijoada (Brazilian Black Bean and Mixed Meat Stew) With Orange

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:17:55 -0500

Traditionally eaten on Wednesday's and Saturday's throughout Brazil with white rice and oranges (amongst other things), this special and rich meaty slow cooked stew has a depth of flavour using simple ingredients that could bring 'ooohs' and 'aaaahh's' from across the Atlantic I'm sure. I save my version for special occasions when I want a really hearty shared meal and I love the way the beans melt into the sauce lending their luxurious almost creamy texture to the finished dish. Originally this was made by African slaves using fatty offal scraps and as tasty as it was (I've tried this version and it is pretty good!) many people nowadays, including myself, make it lighter and use better quality meats. The Orange and Coriander salad is not compulsory but comes very highly recommended. Absolutely Outstanding. -- posted by robd16

Smoky Chicken and Chorizo Mexican Enchilada Baked Casserole

Mon, 11 Jan 2010 08:54:15 -0500

This recipe was made from leftovers and has been requested again ALREADY by Malcolm, my husband! Cooked chicken is mixed with smoky, hot chorizo sausage and folded through a chipotle chilli tomato sauce..........sounds too hot?! I then added some sweet corn, sour cream and a jar of mild salsa to calm it down a bit, but please DO use hot salsa if you like a little spice in your life! I topped this with a dollop of sour cream and dressed it with chopped jalapeno peppers, parsley and a little chopped coriander (cilantro) for a perfect cold weather lunch. I devised this recipe especially for the Two for One Leftovers event in the Cooking Photo's Forum. Please adjust the chilli powder to your own requirements. I like spicy food but Malcolm does not, so I topped mine with loads of chopped jalapeno peppers and a sprinkling of chipotle chilli powder!! NB: I used Spanish chorizo sausage, which is cured; if you are using fresh chorizo sausage, it needs to be browned beforehand.(I made this original recipe with leftovers from KissKiss's Recipe #368069. However, ANY cooked chicken will do for this!) -- posted by French Tart

Chili Rubbed Flank Steak Roll With Avocado Cream

Mon, 11 Jan 2010 19:03:37 -0500

This is a great meal for the broiler or the grill. I live in Iowa and thought of this recipe in January so naturaly I used the broiler but can't wait to try it on the grill with some grilled asparagus. Using the chili powder rub and hot italian sausage the meat is very hot, but is equally complemented by the cool avocado cucumber cream sauce. I hope you enjoy! -- posted by Benly03

Chicken Breasts Stuffed With Italian Sausage and Breadcrumbs- Co

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 18:35:37 -0500

"Serve with sauteed zucchini and tomatoes for a complete meal ready in just 35 minutes" I haven't tried this yet but it looks great! I think it would need a pan gravy or tomato sauce though to cut some of the dryness... -- posted by Pritha

Slow Cooker Sausage and Peppers

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 11:53:56 -0500

I received this recipe in a weekly email that I've been getting from McCormick's website. I made this one day when I didn't want to spend a lot of time with last minute preparations for our Sunday meal. Italian sausage(sweet or hot) gives so much hardiness to a meal that there seems to be little reason to serve much else. We had this over spaghetti, but it could also be made for a super bowl party, and served from the crock spooned into rolls or buns. Hope you enjoy this as much as we have. -- posted by bshemyshua

Nothing says lovin like some spicy Louisiana cooking. I absolutely LOVE making this when I have the time. I'm toning down the amount of creole seasoning that I use, because I tend to be a little heavy handed with it. The amount is an approximate - season to your taste. -- posted by Mama Delilah

Sausage and Hash Brown Breakfast Pie

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 13:26:52 -0500

A great and hearty breakfast pie that is sure to please everyone. I've never had anyone not enjoy it or even suggest a way to make it better. You can add more bacon if you like. Sometimes the hash browns need to cook longer, so please keep that in mind. Prep time is probably off because I make it early in the morning. Cook time should be dead on. -- posted by Nate From SoCal
