3 T olive oil
1 small onion, diced
salt & pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced (I always use my garlic press)
4 sweet Italian-style turkey sausage, casings removed (I had two extra links that I cooked in a separate pan for the kiddos - they LOVE turkey sausage!)
1 1/2 cups tomato-basil or marinara sauce (I used a jar but you can use homemade also)
3 cups baby arugula
2 T whipped cream cheese
1/3 cup grated Parmesan
4 baked russet potatoes
1 small onion, diced
salt & pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced (I always use my garlic press)
4 sweet Italian-style turkey sausage, casings removed (I had two extra links that I cooked in a separate pan for the kiddos - they LOVE turkey sausage!)
1 1/2 cups tomato-basil or marinara sauce (I used a jar but you can use homemade also)
3 cups baby arugula
2 T whipped cream cheese
1/3 cup grated Parmesan
4 baked russet potatoes
In a large skillet, cook the
sausage and break up the meat with a wooden spoon.
Cook until browned and cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions, salt and
pepper to taste. Cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 3
minutes.
Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add the sausage back in, along with the marinara and the arugula.
Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until the
arugula has wilted, about 2 minutes.
Adding the sausage and sauce |
Then the arugula...cooked down. |
Add the cream cheese and stir
until the mixture forms a creamy sauce. Remove from the heat and stir in
the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper.
The cream cheese adds a richness, but feel free to leave it out if you want to cut some calories. |
Cut a slit in the top of each baked potato and spoon the sausage sauce into each potato. Enjoy!
Yummy!!! |
