Ingredients
- 1 lb pork sausage links
- 16 oz potato gnocchi
- 16 oz sliced white mushrooms
- 1½ cups sauerkraut
- 1 count red bell pepper
- 1 count yellow onion
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Steps
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Slice the sausages into 1/2-inch coins, dice the onion, and cut the pepper into strips. Drain the sauerkraut.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add the sausage and cook 5 to 6 minutes, stirring, until browned and cooked through (160°F). Move to a plate.
- Add the remaining oil, onion, pepper, and mushrooms to the skillet with a pinch of salt. Cook 6 to 7 minutes until the mushrooms are browned and the vegetables are soft.
- Meanwhile, drop the gnocchi into the boiling water and cook 2 to 3 minutes until they float. Drain.
- Add the gnocchi, sausage, and sauerkraut to the skillet and toss 1 to 2 minutes until hot. Season with pepper and serve.
- Picky eaters can have the sausage and gnocchi plain, without the sauerkraut.
- Make ahead: slice the sausage and cut the onion and pepper up to 1 day ahead and keep them covered in the fridge.
On the side: Garlicky green beans (10 min)
12 oz green beans
- Trim the green beans. Cook in a skillet with a splash of olive oil over medium-high heat, 6 to 8 minutes, until bright and just tender.
- Stir in a minced garlic clove for the last minute and season with salt.
