Do you remember the time before you had allergies/intolerances? The time when you would walk up to the street sausage vendor and buy a sausage topped with sauteed onions and peppers.

Mmmm, oops day dreaming again… So unless you want to have a major reaction and feel like ultimate garbage, you are not going to do that. Here is a simple yet absolutely tasty way to rectify the situation.

Combing sausages, sauteed onions and peppers on top of a caramelized baked sweet potato is the key!

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

 

Sauteed Onions, Peppers and Sausage Sweet Potato (Paleo/ Gluten Free/ Dairy Free)

2 sweet potatoes- medium to large

1 large onion- peeled and sliced

1 large pepper (any colour)- sliced

2 sausages- sliced

1 tsp.olive oil- or desired oil

sea salt and pepper to taste

Preheat over to 400 degrees

Wash sweet potato and cut length wise. Brush cut side with olive oil and and top with black pepper. Place cut side down onto parchment paper lined baking tray. Bake for 40-55 minutes or until potatoes are soft when pricked with a fork.

During the last 15-20 minutes of cooking, place cut sausages into a skillet on medium heat cooking thoroughly, approximately 8 minutes. Drain much of the fat if desired,  leaving at least a tablespoons worth. Add in onions and peppers and saute for 6-8 minutes until veggies are soft.

When sweet potatoes are cooked take out of the oven and either smash down the flesh a bit or remove some of the potato and reserve for a different dish.

Top your sweet potato with sausage, onion, pepper mixture. Sea salt and pepper to taste.

 

Makes four servings.
