Chicken Sausage Three Cheese Italian Style + Penne Frittata

Three Cheese Italian Style Sausage and Penne Frittata | Black Girl Chefs Whites     If you haven’t noticed yet, I love simple, fast and easy. Minimum prep time and ingredients but maximum flavor.  This Chicken Sausage Three Cheese Italian Style and Penne Frittata is all of the above. What really makes this dish though is the addition of a truly flavorful sausage. Johnsonville Sausages have always been on my shopping list, as I know the quality and flavor will be good no matter which product I buy. I am pleased to be working with Johnsonville to develop recipes for you using their Chicken Sausage varieties. Johnsonville Sausages are made with absolutely no fillers for a juicy and firm texture and bite, packed with real flavor. You are sure to find one you love because there are a bunch of delicious varieties, including Apple Chicken Sausage, Chicken Sausage Chipotle Monterey Jack Cheese, Chicken Sausage Three Cheese Italian Style, Chicken Sausage Cajun Style, to name a few!I used Chicken Sausage Three Cheese Italian Style to make this hearty frittata.  Mozzarella, Romano, and Parmesan cheeses are mixed with premium chicken and spices to make this outstanding sausage. And what is more Italian than pasta? Nothing, of course, so this was an obvious addition to my recipe. A frittata is always a great choice for an easy meal, whether served for brunch or dinner. They are also perfect for easy entertaining. As long as you have eggs on hand, you can make a frittata. This recipe is fairly basic, but can be enhanced with more vegetables, including green peas, broccoli or zucchini. All of the flavor varieties of Johnsonville Split Rope Sausage or Chicken Sausage lend themselves to being used in a frittata.  Are you setting up a buffet for a party? Maybe a Mardi Gras party? (It is coming up, you know!) Make a few different frittatas using Johnsonville Sausage, then place them on the buffet with salad, assorted olives, a cheese platter and fresh fruit.  Offer your guests your beverages of choice and you have a fabulous party! With all the unique flavors, Johnsonville Sausages are the perfect Mardi Gras party food.   Three Cheese Italian Style Sausage and Penne Frittata | Black Girl Chefs Whites
