For a spicier kick, use hot Italian sausage or add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the skillet when cooking the vegetables. Feel free to experiment with different colors of bell peppers for a more visually appealing dish. To make this dish vegetarian, substitute the sausage with 1 (15-ounce) can of drained and rinsed black beans or chickpeas. This dish is delicious served on its own, but you can also serve it over rice, quinoa, or polenta.
