Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (12-14 oz) Smoked Turkey Sausage or Kielbasa (Approx. $3.50)
- 2 lbs Russet Potatoes, scrubbed and diced into 1/2 inch cubes (Approx. $1.50)
- 1 large Yellow Onion, chopped (Approx. $0.60)
- 1 bag (12 oz) Frozen Green Beans or Peas (Approx. $1.25)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil (Approx. $0.10)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder (Pantry staple)
- Salt and Black Pepper to taste (Pantry staples)
Instructions
- Start by slicing your smoked sausage into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Scrub your potatoes well to remove any dirt; you can leave the skins on to save time and add extra nutrients. Dice the potatoes into small, even 1/2-inch cubes to ensure they cook quickly and evenly. Finely chop your yellow onion and set everything aside on a cutting board so you are ready for the stove.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced sausage and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the edges are browned and crispy. Remove the sausage from the pan and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the diced potatoes and onions. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir them to coat in the remaining oil and sausage drippings. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and fork-tender.
- Once the potatoes are soft, remove the lid and add the frozen green beans and the cooked sausage back into the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for another 3-5 minutes until the green beans are heated through and slightly brightened. Give the dish a final taste and add more salt or pepper if needed. Scoop generous portions into four bowls and serve immediately while steaming hot.
