Sausage galore!

Been a little crazy about sausages these days...think it all started after Hubby kept saying he wanted the 'real' sausages instead of the normal skinny frozen ones you get at the supermarket. So recently, I kept looking out for 'real' sausages to include in meals so Hubby would be more satisfied. :p



The above pictures show 2 meals in which I incorporated the use of these sausages. There's the time I cooked some tomato spaghetti, but didn't have much else to go with it, so I raided the fridge again and found a large, attractive yellow capsicum, some cheese, some nice sausages, and some seaweed bits. Cut the capsicum into halves, melted the cheese in them in the microwave (which I love more and more cos I'm experimenting creating items with it more often!) and positioned the cut (and cooked) sausages neatly in them. Drizzled some olive oil over everything, then sprinkled the seaweed pits over them. Pretty! ^_^

Then there's the American breakfast I made last Sunday. Usually I'd have bread or toast, but Hubby got tired of them, so I substituted bread with boiled red-skin potatoes and carrots, which was mixed with some Heinz sandwich spread, and served it with scrambled eggs, a side salad that I mixed with balsamic vinaigrette dressing, and a jumbo chicken sausage that I bought from Cold Storage the day before. It's quite a filling breakfast, but definitely healthy! Oh and check out the cherry-on-vine tomatoes I tossed into the salad as well. They're so pretty that I couldn't resist them. And hey, they taste lovely too. Sweeter and juicier than the normal cherry tomatoes.

And this one's a refreshing cold glass of passionfruit drink, created by simply mixing water with some passionfruit puree that my student and her mum made for me on Teachers' Day. Made this for Hubby to go with the spaghetti that evening, but took a sip of it. Yum! Curious about how the puree was made. Shall look it up when I've time. Maybe I can create some of my own too.
