Tip: If you’re watching your carb intake you can ditch the bread and eat the yummy sausage and peppers on their own, with romaine lettuce or even tossed with zoodles! While This isn’t an ideal low carb recipe it is great for a cheat day!
Sausages can be made in a stockpot, a slow cooker or an Instant Pot like I did with this Italian Sausage and peppers recipe.
