Recipe Friday: Kielbasa Bake

We were gifted some kielbasa and, wondering what to do with it, I thought about my Baked Pork Chop Dinner – I liked it so much that I decided on a re-do.

The kielbasa itself was enough for one dinner for the two of us. I wanted enough of the “rest of the stuff” for some left-overs: it will be good fried up as a side.

Ingredients:

• 1 14-oz pkg kielbasa
• 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into bite-size cubes
• 6 small potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks a bit larger than the sweet potatoes (they take different amounts of time to cook, so the sweet potatoes are a bit smaller)
• 1 medium-large onion, peeled and cut into chunks
• 3 small apples, peeled, cored, and cut into chunks
• Liberal amounts of olive oil
• Seasoned salt to taste

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. I used a large baking pan, 15” x 10”
3. Pour a tablespoon or two of olive oil on the bottom of the pan.
4. Place each of the sweet potatoes, potatoes, onions, and apples into the pan as you cut them up.
5. Drizzle with olive oil.
6. Sprinkle with seasoned salt.
7. Gently mix the vegetables about the pan and spread evenly.
8. Slice the kielbasa into lengths you like, and spread over the top of the vegetables.
9. Cover with foil.
10. Bake at 350° for one hour.
11. Remove the foil and bake another half hour.
