    Eating healthy doesn't mean spending all night in the kitchen! This easy, one skillet dinner takes under 30 minutes! Kielbasa sausage and savory veggies makes this complete meal perfect for dinner or meal preps!

    sausage and peppers in a skillet

    This is the perfect keto 1 skillet dinner.  Really filling, generous servings, less than 30 minutes, and super delicious!

    This recipe made such a quick meal prep.  I just whipped it up really quickly, divided it between 4 bowls with lids, and I then had 4 meals for the week!

    At less than 400 calories per serving and only 5 net carbs, it's a definite win.

    To make this as easy as possible, I use already frozen cauliflower rice that is in a steerable bag.  I also use already diced and frozen onions.  Those are such a time saver!  You could also use already diced and frozen green bell peppers as well!

      I made this for dinner and it was awesome. I don't like cauliflower so I use broccoli. Turned out great!

      This was very good and I have never liked kielbasa. Every recipe I have tried by Jennifer has been excellent.
