So after making the stew, I had exactly one leftover Italian Turkey Sausage Link. I suppose I could have just thrown it into the pot, but the stew really had enough meat. And I suppose I could have just eaten it with bread and ketchup like a regular bratwurst, but I decided to get creative and make something fun. So I made mini pizzas for lunch today using the extra link. My mom used to make these for us kids a lot; I just made it lower calorie.
Anne's Mini Pizzas (based on Mom's Mini Pizzas)
345 calories total for 2 mini-pizzas (not bad!)
I toasted one split Healthy Life Light English Muffin (90 calories) in the toaster and put it on a baking sheet. I evenly divided 1/4 cup Ragu Light Tomato and Basil Sauce to spread on the English muffins (25 calories). I sliced the one cooked turkey sausage link (160 calories) and arranged the slices over the sauce. Finally, I evenly divided 1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Mozzarella cheese (70 calories) over the muffins. I baked them for about 5-6 minutes at 350º to get the sauce warm and cheese melted and that's it. Super easy and delicious, and a wise way to use leftovers. I paired it with grapes and a spinach salad for a pretty healthy lunch.
What creative or yummy recipe would YOU make with one Turkey Sausage Link?
