Sausage Aparagus Skillet


Sausage Asparagus Skillet
from Simply In Season  (the best cookbook of seasonal recipes!)

This is a new (to me) recipe that I just found that we think is a winner. I love that it takes only one pan for an entire meal! This is one of those meals that I love my extra deep cast iron Griswold skillet that came from Ed's grandmother. I use this pan every day!

1 lb sausage
1 onion, chopped
Fry together until lightly browned.



4-5 potatoes, chopped
1/2 cup water
salt and pepper, to taste
Add, to sausage, cover and simmer 10 minutes.



1 lb asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces
Add and simmer for 10 minutes or until vegetables are soft. If needed, add extra water.



1/2 cup cheese, shredded
Sprinkle on top.

  4. yum! this recipe does sound good; looking forward to trying. on the skillet note, i've never had any cast iron cookware; personally, my pampered chef non-stick skillet is my all-time favorite. =) can you explain what you like about cast iron?

    Cast iron is basically indestructible. I have no idea how long Ed's grandmother had it, but I should be able to use it for my lifetime and hand it to my granddaughter. No special utensils are needed. If it is well-seasoned, it is basically non-stick. I could go on, but you get the idea! I LOVE cast iron!

  10. In your Sausage Asparagus Skillet recipe, do you usually use Russets? Or Yukon Gold potatoes?
