I’m sharing #SausageFamily in my life as part of a Johnsonville sponsored series for Socialstars™
This simple and delicious Italian Sausage and Peppers recipe is a breeze to whip up for a family meal. It’s a classic meal that never gets old. Serve it over rice or pasta or stuff it into hoagie rolls for a filling dinner the whole family will enjoy.
Flavorful chunks of Italian sausage are combined with diced tomatoes, garlic, oregano, basil, lots of red and green bell pepper and onion. It’s a comforting meal but light enough to be enjoyed on a warm summer day.
For this Italian Sausage and Peppers recipe I used Johnsonville Natural Italian Sausage. Johnsonville Naturals is a new product line that not only includes Italian Sausage, but 3 flavors of bratwurst too: White Cheddar, Jalapeno Cheddar, and Andouille.
They are perfect for lightening up your summer meals.
Johnsonville Naturals have the great taste you know and love Johnsonville Sausage for, but with a short ingredient list. They have no MSG added, zero grams trans fat, no fillers, and are gluten free.
Not only is this a meal you can feel good about serving your family, but it can be made start to finish in under 30 minutes, making it great for those busy summer days when you glance at the clock and realize it is 5 pm and you haven’t even thought about dinner yet.

Hi there.
I just wanted to say thank you for the recipe. I cooked it for my family tonight and everyone was delighted with it, it was delicious.
I was lucky to have some really good sausage, high meat content. Lovely spices and a hint of fennel.
The sharpness of the sauce really complimented the richness of the meat. I added the chilli and it gave the dish a gorgeous background warmth, nothing outrageous. I happened to have some sweet peppers and I added one of those too. I think it worked well.
Have added to my recipe book and will make again.
Thanks again!
Very tasty and simplistic recipe for Italian sausage and peppers.
Thanks
This was delicious! I used mild sausages. I also left out the red pepper flakes because I did not want it to be hot! I will definitely make this again.
