When I was a little girl my Nana would take us to the Italian feast in Lawrence, MA every labor day weekend. We would enjoy many Italian treats but always had to indulge in a sausage and pepper grinder. They were so amazing! I still love making sausage and peppers especially in the summer at our lake house. I can make a huge pan right in the oven and keep it warm while we are all out enjoying the lake and when we are ready to eat….. Sausage and Peppers are ready to go! It is funny to me how everyone lights up for this simple dish! You can take the left overs and make a frittata for breakfast or add to your Sunday sauce! The enjoyment can last for meals and meals!
The directions below show you two ways to prepare this dish! You can also make this on your outdoor grill. To do that I grill the sausage on the grill for about 12-15 minutes. Using a vegetable basket grill peppers and onions separately until they are soft and tender. Keep warm until ready to serve.
Modify this recipe depending on how many you are serving. I always make extra as they are great warmed up later or used up in other recipes!
