Sausage & Peppers

This time of year is cold, wet, gray and freezing outside. All we can do is wait for Spring. I swear it's coming. In the meantime I try to come up with tummy warming menus and one of my favorites is a classic... sausage and peppers. This comfort food favorite is a great Sunday Supper option as it's easy to prepare, delicious, and serves a crowd. Add some crunchy bread and a salad and you're all set.Here's my recipe from Picture Perfect Parties, my cookbook. Give it a try and let me know what you think.  Cheers to Spring showing up soon! x
