Incredible!! I used plant based sausage since I have high blood pressure and cholesterol issues. I used no salt diced tomatoes with chilies and no salt stewed tomatoes and wow what flavor this dish has!! Thank you for an amazing recipe.

Horrible horrible music existed on this pin so I almost didn’t click as i mostly refuse to get past the horrible music since i sometimes to forget to turn my sound off when others are watching tv, but we love kielbasa as a quick meal. Hope breaking my hard rule about not trying a recipe with music is worth it-lol fingers are crossed 🙂

This is a busy weekday go-to meal in our household. It cooks quickly but has a lot of flavor. It’s also healthy with all the vegetables!

Delicious! Not usually a fan of Kielbasa, just happened to have some in the freezer. I didn’t have canned tomatoes so I cut up 5 Roma tomatoes and added them to the skillet after I’d sautee’d the other veggies. Also didn’t have mushrooms but will definitely add them next time. Served with black beans & rice. Thank you for a great recipe!
