On the Menu...

So yesterday afternoon and night were kind of rough for me. And when I am stressed or unhappy, I am one of those people that needs comfort food to cheer myself up and cooking is something that makes me feel better. So last night I cooked up a big pasta dish that I like to call Turkey Sausage Polska Kielbasa Primavera (sounds fancy, but super easy). I thought I would share the recipe with you all because it is one of my all time favorite dishes to make.
What you will need:

1 Package  of fully cooked Turkey Sausage 
(whatever brand and flavor you like)
1 Large sweet onion (I used vidalia)
1 Large Red pepper
1 Summer squash
1 Package of frozen broccoli
1/2 Box of small pasta noodle (I like to use Penne)
1 Jar of your favorite alfredo sauce
(I love Bertoli's alfredo)
Salt
Pepper
Garlic
(I normally used fresh garlic clove, but I unfortunately ran out)
Olive oil


Start by warming your pan or skillet with a little bit of olive oil in it, not too hot. Also start your water for the noodles and add in olive oil and salt. Then simply chop your veggies and toss in the pan. Sprinkle salt and pepper and let them sautee for about 10 minutes or until your summer squash is translucent and broccoli is tender.

It looks so pretty!

Chop the turkey sausage and toss in the pan with the veggies. Put a lid on the pan and let it simmer for about 15 minutes.

After simmering turn off the heat and add pasta noodles and jar of alfredo. Then mix!


Bon appetit!

Thanks for reading!

First Post!

Hello! Thank you for taking time out of your day to come visit my blog. I am very excited to start blogging again. I have not had the time in the last couple of years because I was spending a lot of my time at school. I have recently graduated which is exciting...not so exciting is job hunting. So, to fill my time while doing that as well as fulling other life tasks, I have decided to blog again. This blog will mostly be dedicated to random, small, big, or everyday events or tidbits in my life (not that my life is that exciting, lol), probably a lot of posts about books that I have read or are currently reading, and products that I have tried, love, or hate. I am hoping to get more creative the more that I post so just be patient with me :) Thank you again for reading and I hope you all have a beautiful day!
