Spicy Italian Sausage and Peppers is bursting with great Italian flavor. It’s an easy meal that’s perfect for weeknight family dinners as well as weekend dinners with friends.
I’m just going to say it, this Italian sausage and peppers will knock your socks off. It’s so full of flavor and it will fill your kitchen with the most delicious aroma as it simmers on the stove. It only takes about 30 minutes of hands on time to prepare before it simmers with just the occasional stir.
I like to keep this meal low-carb by serving it over zucchini noodles, but it would also be amazing over your favorite pasta. And if you’re not into low-carb, you must serve it with some crusty bread to dip in that delicious sauce.
