*I attempted an alfredo style dish on Tuesday. Chop up some onions, garlic, green pepper, spinach, and various other tasty bits and set aside. Boil some water for pasta (I was using some rainbow colored various shaped pasta from Trader Joe's). Cut up some sausage (Sun-dried tomato chicken sausage from TJ's is a good choice). Heat up a skillet

I have made a number of dishes where the leftovers were better than the initial offering... i don't know what that's about, although i might just try to make what you posted. it sounds great, and i have mad loves for chx sausage!

I laughed out loud about Lee Iacocca's book.

I love the flavored sausages. I've tried making these sort of things with Eckridge sausage, but it just doesn't compare. Here's another recipe that works great and is super easy:

*Cut up your sausage of choice and brown in a medium or large saucepan
*Add chopped onions, green (and/or red) peppers, garlic and whatever else inspires you
*When the veggies are tender, add 1/2 cup brown rice, 1/2 cup lentils, and one can of low sodium chicken broth
*Reduce heat and cook for 40-60 minutes. Stir occasionally.

This tastes great hot or cold and makes awesome leftovers. Goes really well with orange juice.
