I don’t know about you, but by the time 6pm rolls around I’m WIPED. Like completely exhausted from chasing after a crawling, almost walking, infant!
That means dinnertime has to be EASY PEASY LEMON SQUEEZY!
One of my go-to hacks lately has been to use chicken sausage. It’s organic, pre-cooked, and tastes great, so all I have to do is brown it (for preference), add some veggies, and ENJOY!
There are endless combinations of meals that you can make with chicken sausage, but one of my favorites is fajitas!
Chicken Sausage Fajitas are SO EASY to make and even better, you can make the entire meal on a SHEET PAN!
I prefer the spicy organic Bilinski’s chicken sausage, but you can use ANY variety that you’d like. Trader Joe’s and Applegate also make quality products with ingredients you can recognize.
How to make Sheet Pan Chicken Sausage Fajitas
This recipe is one of my go-tos because you just chop up veggies, sprinkle with spices, add to a large baking sheet with your sliced chicken sausage and bake.
Seriously… that’s it!
It’s also a perfect quarantine meal while we’re stuck inside from the coronavirus because chicken sausage freezes great! Plus, onions are a long-lasting veggie and bell peppers you can buy frozen and pre-sliced. WINNING!
