    You could saute` the yellow squash and onion in coconut oil too. I seem to use more and more coconut oil and less butter anymore.

    Where do you find nitrite free sausage? I cannot find it at Kroger.Maybe on my next trip to alt doc 60 mi away we will go to health food store-we lost our local health food store due to economy.

    I was able to find at our store here, but I’ve also ordered online from US Wellness Meats before.

    I do something similar for a quick one pan meal.  Saute sausage and add in thinly sliced onion and cabbage.  When the cabbage cooks I season with salt, pepper and vinegar.

    I love sausage and kale. I slice the sausage and brown it in the pan, along with onions and garlic (usually in bacon fat), add in a splash of chicken broth, canned diced tomatoes and kale. Throw a lid on until the kale cooks down, let it simmer until we’re ready to eat. Soooo flavorful and easy!

    Target has some delicious nitrite/nitrate free sausages to choose from. 
    I stir fry it along w/ an onion & a variety of colored peppers & it’s delicious!

    Hi! this looks great!  just wondering how many people this recipe is meant to serve? Thanks again!

    It would probably serve 6-8 for one meal. There are six of us (four kids though) and it is one full meal and sides for another meal.

    This looks so good ( and easy too!) It just seems to me like it needs something else… Maybe another kind of veggie, or even something sweet like pineapples or cut up apples… Hmm…I’ll have to think about it.
