IMG_0862

So I use Turkey a lot in my meals… Its lean and tasty!!!  Here is I guess a stir-fry?!?  that I eat a lot!!!

Lisa’s Turkey Sausage Stir-fry:

1 Pkg. of Turkey Sausages

1 Med. Onion

1. red pepper

1 orange pepper

1 yellow pepper

1/2 lb. white button mushrooms

2 celery stalks

1/4 cup water

2 tbsp. Olive Oil

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (optional)

garlic

salt

pepper

1. Chop all vegetables up before you start!

2.Then cook your sausages…  I don’t use oil to cook the sausages I brown them with their own fat content…  and if I see they are sticking on I pour in 1/4 cup of water… once cooked take them out and chop them up too…

3. Pour in oil… let it heat a minute or so and toss in all veggies…

5. Add you seasoning now!!  If you have other seasonings you like then add them… it’s a flexible recipe!!

4. Once veggies are cooked toss in the chopped sausages and serve!!  You could serve with rice if you like 😉

Enjoy!!!

Lisa’ s Overnight Oats!!

Here is a recipe that I adopted from other recipes… I am not a chef.. dietician or in any thing other than a food lover who likes to create in the kitchen…

Lisa’s Overnight Oats:

1 Cup Large Flake Oats or Steel Cut (that’s what I use)

1 cup Almond Milk

1 cup Organic Blackberry Yogurt

1 tbsp. Ground Flaxseed

1 tbsp. Chia Seeds

1 tsp. Cinnamon

1 tsp. Vanilla

Mix all ingredients in a bowl… Cover and put in fridge… leave at least three hours (I leave it overnight)… in morning its ready to eat!!  You can pop them in microwave to heat up for a minute or so if you like… But can be eaten cold!!

Options as to what you put in your oats are endless… make whatever flavour combinations you want!  Keep in mind though it does get soggy because its absorbing the liquids… so nuts… raisins… bananas etc. are all delish!!!
