Broccoli and lemon chicken sausage pasta
4 servings of pasta (I used 115 g of whole wheat spiral pasta. I shoot for ~ 25 g of carb per serving)
1.5 cups of fresh broccoli
1 cup of mushrooms, sliced
5 chicken sausage links
1/4 cup green olives, chopped
3 lemons
Extra virgin olive oil
garlic salt
Parmesan cheese
Start by boiling pasta. Dice up the chicken sausage links and start to brown in a pan with 1 tbsp EVOO. Once the sausage is brown, add in broccoli and mushrooms. Add 1/4 cup of water to pan to start steaming the broccoli. Cook broccoli until it is as tender as you desire. When pasta and sausage/veg are cooked, put in a large mixing bowl and toss with the juice of 3 lemons and sprinkle of parmesan cheese and garlic salt.
Enjoy!! This is one of my all time favorite pasta toppings!
Made this tonight for the family! Loved it and will become a staple on our dinner menu!
I've made this 3 times in the last month or so (including right now!)–thought I'd tell you that it's a big hit! We add sriracha if we can't get very spicy sausage
