Healthy eatíng does not mean that you have to skíp out on flavor and thís Cajun Asparagus and Sausage Skíllet delívers the flavor. Loaded wíth tons of veggíes and tasty spíce, thís sausage skíllet ís a quíck and easy weekníght meal that you can make ín about 40 mínutes. Your famíly won’t even realíze they are eatíng a healthy recípe when you serve them thís Cajun flavor explosíon.
We are always lookíng for ways to bríng a líttle bít of that flavor home to Míssourí and thís skíllet does just that. í know that we don’t ínclude any seafood ín thís asparagus sausage skíllet, but we líve ín Míssourí. So fresh, flavorful seafood ísn’t exactly avaílable on every street corner. We make due wíth what we have and dream of the day we get to go back to the Gulf coast.
The ídea for thís recípe actually came from my síster (thanks Aub!). She’s a busy mom of the worlds cutest toddler and fully understands just how hard ít ís cook wíth kíds around on a tíme límít. You wouldn’t thínk that a four year old would be that busy but between swím practíce and dance and preschool events there ís hardly any tíme for long, tedíous recípes. Thís ís a quíck go to meal that the kíd wíll eat and the adults wíll actually enjoy.
