This is one of those recipes that will remind you of how great simple, flavorful dinners can be, and that you don’t need crazy fancy ingredients to make a meal that everyone will love. The stars of this dish are kielbasa – always a fave – and cabbage, so nutritious. The side is rice and beans (I used cannelloni) and we added Linza Salsa, a favorite we brought back from Costa Rica that you can find on line. We adapted this recipe from theforkedspoon, as it was made for meal prep planning. But, we aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. 🤷♀️. 👩🏻🍳 https://theforkedspoon.com/meal-prep-skillet-kielbasa-with-bell-peppers/. Skillet Kielbasa with Bell Peppers and Cabbage
