One Pan Curried Wild Rice, Red Quinoa with Sausage and Cavolo Nero
"Who ever said you cannot eat healthy and incorporate sausages in too? Well, look at this quick one pot meal, packed with veggies and goodness. Yes, I agree, there are good quality sausages and not so good ones and since I have touched this sausages quality subject, let me tell you what I think. Well…, for me a sausage is made from a good cut of meat and herbs, nothing else. No breadcrumbs or other filling stuff. This one pan recipe is a delicious meal, it contains sausages, Cavolo Nero and a deliciously curried wild rice and quinoa. Really delicious ??"
Notes* This recipe realistically is for two adults and two children but if you are making it for 4 adults I suggest use three to four little sausages or two regular ones per person. Ultimately of course use as many sausages as you would like to have depending on how hungry you really are, this was just an indication . I’d go for more veggies rather than sausages but hey, I’ll leave it up to you to decide.
*I have used ready cooked rice and quinoa mix but of course many times I just use leftover or cook it all from fresh - it really depends on what I have and mood I am in.
