Another delicious, messy, Atkins-friendly recipe from my fertile brain (and the random contents of my half-emptied fridge):
ATKINS-Y SAUSAGE & PEPPERS & STUFF
3 medium green peppers
1 lb sausage (any flavor)
3 stalks celery with tops
1 bunch scallions
1/4 head chinese cabbage
1 tbsp butter
1 large bay leaf
dash of red wine vinegar
3 slices prosciutto, chopped
provolone cheese, sliced or chopped
1) Chop the vegetables into large chunks. Slice the sausage into large pieces.
2) Melt the butter in a large saucepan under high heat. Add the sausage, saute until browned.
3) Add the celery and cook for two minutes until soft. Add the scallions, peppers, and chinese cabbage, and bay leaf. Cover and cook, stirring occassionally, two more minutes.
4) Clear a space at the bottom of the pan, and put the prosciutto there. It will cook through in just a few seconds. Add the vinegar and stir. Cover and cook until the peppers are somewhat soft, three more minutes.
5) Remove from heat. Serve in shallow bowls and garnish with chopped provolone.
Atkins Gal gave this new recipe the taste bud stamp of approval. Actually, she just reminded me that she actually "raved" about it, and declared that we should have this meal every week. Makes me feel brilliant. Enjoy.
