Sausage and peppers! Sausage and peppers! This is a recipe that is absolutely screaming easy to make comfort food.
It seems like these last couple of summery weeks flew by and now we've landed in back to school September and everything has changed. The pace of life has picked up and there's a little (welcomed!) chill in the air that has me craving heartier meals like sausage and pasta recipes.
Only by pasta I mean zucchini noodles because zoodles are awesome.
Why you need to make this sausage and peppers recipe:
- Grimm's makes my favorite fine garlic sausage. It adds so much flavor to this veggie-loaded recipe.
- This recipe is all meat + vegetables. In other words, it's the best kind of recipe ever.
- This zoodles recipe got a thumbs up from my handsome man, which is a HUGE deal. He's never before gone back for a second helping of any zoodles recipe. #win
- It also got a thumbs up from my little girl, which is less impressive since she's not a picky eater. She was stoked that she got to eat sausage & peppers, her two favorite things, for dinner.
- It's a healthy, gluten-free dinner recipe that you can whip up in no time. Read: perfect for back to school!
- While I love it with zoodles, you could easily serve this with pasta or rice to switch things up or to keep everyone at the table happy.

See that Grimm's Fine Garlic Sausage up there? That's the best stuff ever. Grimm's Fine Foods sent me some to make this recipe, but it's not the first time I've tried it. We buy it regularly because it is just. so. good.
When my handsome man saw that there were three packages in our fridge I had to wrestle them out of his hands so they wouldn't get eaten before I had a chance to cook with them. He loves it as much as I do.
I highly recommend picking up a few packages. Make this recipe with one, then make these sesame pineapple sausage bites with the other. It's another favorite garlic sausage recipe of mine.
Grimm's Fine Foods makes delicious, high-quality meat products, cheeses, and snacks. I often pack some Grimm's Honey Garlic Mini Peps in Ava's snack box on the days she's in daycare. When I'm shopping, I reach for their logo all the time because everything of theirs that I've tried has been great. And I've tried a lot!
