Date Night Dinners - Apples and Sausage

12/20/2013 tringel 0 Comments

I really don't have to much to say about this meal. We wanted something quick and easy but still delicious and packed with flavors (as usual). And that is exactly what it was. With little prep and easy clean up, we were happy we could spend even more time filling our bellies. We decided to accompany our Sausage and apple Saute with some scrambled eggs, turning this hash like dish into a full on, bread free breakfast for dinner meal. Umm, yum! The flavors meshed well together and it was very satisfying. This will definitely be added to the easy prep, healthy(ish) comfort food list, to be made again.
