Directions
- 1Small dice one Spanish onion and two bell peppers.
- 2Cook about a pound and a half of hot Italian sausage, breaking it up as it browns for 3 to 4 minutes.

- 4Give the vegetables a light pinch of salt and cook for 5 to 6 minutes.
- 5Add the cooked sausage back in with the vegetables.
