Healthy living

After completing the 2 day deep cleanse I was craving a healthy meal tonight!  Tonight was my son Johnny's pick for the week,  so I needed to work with him in choosing a meal.  We came up with risotto with sautéed veggies and lean sweet Italian turkey sausage from our local butcher.  It was delicious!  I substituted brown rice and quinoa for the risotto.  We used green and yellow squash, mushrooms, scallions, and garlic gloves.  I sautéed the veggies in olive oil and chicken broth then placed them in a bowl to cook the sausage.  I removed the sausage from its casing and browned the meat so it was crumbly.  Then we combined with the veggies and served over the rice.  It was a hit with all 4 kids.

Thinking about using my butternut squash tomorrow to make soup for the weekend.  If I find a good recipe I will share.  

If anyone is interested in sharing their recipes please comment!

Stay well.
