It’s a weeknight-friendly recipe that’s full of flavor, packed with protein and fiber, and comes together in just 30 minutes. Great for meal prep or a wholesome family dinner!


Ingredients

  • 1 lb smoked sausage (or turkey sausage), sliced into rounds

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced

  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced

  • 1 zucchini, sliced

  • 1 yellow squash, sliced

  • 1 small red onion, sliced

  • 1 cup broccoli florets

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/2 tsp paprika

  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. Add sliced sausage and cook until browned, about 5–6 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.

  3. In the same skillet, add a little more oil if needed and toss in the bell peppers, zucchini, squash, red onion, and broccoli. Sauté for 6–8 minutes, or until tender-crisp.

  4. Add the garlic, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Stir and cook for 1–2 more minutes.

  5. Return the sausage to the skillet, toss everything together, and cook for another 2–3 minutes to heat through.

  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve hot.


Notes

  • You can swap in any veggies you have on hand—mushrooms, asparagus, or green beans work great.

  • For extra flavor, add a splash of balsamic vinegar or a sprinkle of shredded Parmesan before serving.

  • Make it low-carb by skipping starchy veggies like corn or potatoes.
