Something I did off camera because I’m feeding more than one person I thought there wasn’t enough meat in the dish so I did add the other sausage I had so in total I got 4 lbs in here now you just make as much as what you need okay

You don’t have to do like I did all right now as this Cooks I’m going to break it up so it cook faster let me turn this over and just so you know this is fresh sausage from the butcher I got because I found out this has less sodium

It to our vegetables right here now look see all the liquid that’s in there you see that right okay okay we’re going to put our sausage in there and this oil that remains in the pan did you know you can freeze that and use it at a later date for something

Else yes you can and it’ll already have the Italian spices in it so it’ be good to fry your ve parmesan eggplant Parmesan mhm chicken parmesan oh yeah now I’m going to add our mushrooms to this and we will be set I’ve already rinsed them off and I’m putting them in two
