Easy Fixin’

What’s better then eating a delicious meal with the reward of knowing you had fixed it up all by yourself? The quick answer is: an EASY and delicious meal with the reward of knowing you had fixed it up all by yourself with little to no effort! The great thing about today’s dish that I will be sharing is that it utilizes two ingredients that I’ve used in one of my previous recipes, so if you’ve already made my Poor Man’s Stir Fry and have some leftover smoked sausage and onions, then this dish will be perfect for any leftover ingredients! Also, this meal is very versatile and can be eaten as a side dish at someone’s potluck or be served as a breakfast meal with some extra additions! LET’S GET TO COOKIN’!

Cajun Flavored Smoked Sausage w/ Potatoes and Onions

What You’ll Need:

  • 1lb-Smoked Sausage
  • 1 Large Yellow Onion
  • 2-3 medium sized Potatoes
  • Cajun Seasoning
  • Salt and Pepper to Taste

Instructions:

First thing you’ll want to do is chop the smoked sausage into bite-sized chunks about 1/2″, the yellow onion into 1″ squares, and the potatoes into 3/4″ chunks. This is all preference but you’ll want them a little bit small because it allows them to cook faster and makes them easy and fun to eat!

Throw the smoked sausage into a wok or wide cooking pan and cook on medium heat for about 5-7 minutes. You’ll want a semi-crisp on the sausages.

Then stir in the potatoes and cook them covered for about 10 minutes, stirring them 5 minutes into cooking.

Then add the onions and Cajun seasoning. Put in a good amount, about 1/2 to 1 Tablespoon worth and also a dash of salt and pepper. Mix well so that everything is covered in the seasoning. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until onions are transparent.

Once the dish is finished, taste to see if seasoned to your liking. What makes this dish so foolproof is that you can continuously add Cajun, salt and pepper until it is just right for you. Some people like a ton of Cajun flavor while others may want less, it’s entirely up to you and by adding small dashes of Cajun, salt and pepper until it’s perfect, you simply can’t go wrong! Again, great as a side dish for whatever occasion!

Breakfast Note:

Another awesome thing about this recipe is that with a few more ingredients, you can have yourself a super hearty and easy breakfast!

Salsa Scrambler Ingredients

  • American Cheese
  • 1-2 Egg(s)
  • Salsa

How-To:

Start by scrambling the egg or eggs (depending on how much you want) however you’re used to making them. Then scoop a little of the Cajun style smoked sausage dish into a bowl and top with the scrambled eggs. Next, add a slice of American cheese on top of eggs and microwave for about 25-30 secs until cheese is melting. Then finally top with a dollop of salsa, mix and you have your very own SALSA BREAKFAST SCRAMBLER!

HOPEFULLY YOU’LL ENJOY THESE TWO RECIPES AS MUCH AS I DID!
