Step by Step Instructions
  1. DIRECTIONS
  2. 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, then line a baking sheet with foil, spray with nonstick spray, and set aside.
  3. 2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with nonstick spray then add sausages cut side down and sear until golden brown, 5 minutes. Flip then sear for 1 minute. Transfer sausages to prepared baking sheet then set aside.
  4. 3. Turn heat down to a touch above medium then add oil. Once hot, add bell peppers and onion, season with salt and pepper, then saute until vegetables begin to soften and get a little bit of color, 5 minutes. Add mushrooms then saute until all of the vegetables are tender, adding more salt and pepper after the mushrooms release their liquid. When the vegetables have a few minutes left, add garlic then saute until very fragrant. Add balsamic vinegar then stir to combine.
  5. 4. Scoop vegetables on top of seared sausages then sprinkle cheese on top. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cheese is fully melted then serve.
  6. Scoop onto plates then pair with a fresh salad or roasted vegetable to round out the meal.
