This is a quick, easy, one-pot meal in which I used Yves Spicy Italian Veggie Sausages. I'm sure you could sub ordinary Italian sausage if you wanted. Ingredients:
380 g spicy italian vegetarian sausages, yves |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 onion, diced |
1 large carrot, julienned |
1/2 green pepper, diced |
1/2 teaspoon sage |
796 ml diced tomatoes |
1 cup water |
1 1/2 cups orzo pasta |
2 cups broccoli florets |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Slice sausages into 1/4 inch thick slices. 2. Heat oil in a large pot. 3. Add garlic, onion, carrot and green pepper. Saute for about 2 minutes. 4. Add sausage slices and cook for 5 minutes. 5. Sprinkle with sage and salt and pepper. 6. Stir in tomatoes and water and bring to a boil. 7. Stir in orzo and reduce heat to medium. 8. Simmer uncovered, stirring often till most of the liquid is absorbed - about 10 minutes. 9. Stir in broccoli and remove from heat. Cover and let stand till liquid is absorbed - 3 to 5 minutes. 10. Sprinkle each serving with Parmesan cheese, if you like. |
