As usual, it almost seems silly to post this as a recipe, but it's a dish we enjoy, and friends have claimed to enjoy it too. I made it with rice most recently, but I've also made it with quinoa, and it's equally as good.
2 cups cooked rice*
Olive oil
Feta cheese
Chicken sausage cut into pieces (Trader Joe's has a gluten/pork/casing free sundried tomato sausage that I use)
1 cup frozen spinach
1 cup grated zucchini*
4 cloves crushed garlic
Sea salt to taste
Spices to taste (I've been using Costco's organic no salt spice blend)
I get the pan hot first and pour in olive oil and dump in the sausage and rice and let it sit for a minute because I like some browned crunchy bits. I then add the vegetables, garlic, spices and salt, stir it all together, turn down the heat and then cover and allow to cook for about five minutes, stirring occasionally. Before serving I often add a little more olive oil because I heart fat, and I've heard that unheated olive oil is healthier (I should use expeller pressed coconut oil for the cooking part, but I don't have any at the moment), and I also add the feta. Because feta can make anything yummy.
*Lately I've been making big batches of brown rice and then freezing it in two-cup portions. I've also been grating several zucchini in my food processor in the beginning of the week and using it for various meals. If I have those on hand, that makes this meal ridiculously easy.
I enjoy this and your snark! Thanks, I was wondering what to do with my sausage and feta!!!
