Adventure Time!

So, last week we did this:

BRAT FEST, omg.

It was awesome. Like, this kind of awesome:


 
 
 
My brat's on the left, ketchup & onions. Emmy added ketchup, mustard, & relish of some type. Not sure what that green stuff is. But that's okay. And then, after the tacos two weeks ago we made an old favorite of mine:
 
Southern Sausage Stew BUT IT WAS CHILI THIS TIME.
 
 

Aw, yeah. Chili.

Southern Sausage Stew:
~1 large onion
~3 bell peppers, any color
~1 medium-sized hot pepper
~3 stalks celery/carrots
~4 cloves garlic
~5-6 sausages/brats
~few shakes of dried thyme
~cooking oil
~1 tsp paprika
~1 tsp cayenne pepper
~1 Tb balsamic vinegar
~14oz can diced tomatoes
~3 Cups broth

Chop veggies & set aside. Chop sausage & put in stew pot w/ oil at the bottom. Brown sausages & remove from pot, I use a slotted spatula for this, so I'm leaving all the oil/fat behind. Add veggies and cook then until tender/soft. Add meat, tomatoes, cover w/ stock, & add spices. Salt & pepper to taste. Let cook down until desired liquid level, but at least until warmed all the way through. Enjoy!

I once ate this every week for three months running. As you can probably tell from the photo I doubled the recipe last week so we'd have enough for the both of us. It worked, since we have some left over still. This is really good and can even be made w/ chicken.

A few more posts to go, this is a big update!
