D and I had a yellow pepper in our fridge that was about to go bad. So, what did we do? Find a way to use it.
Sausage Rice and Tomato Dish
1 Polish or Italian Sausage
1 Tomato
1/2 jar tomato puree
1 yellow bell pepper
1/2 onion
1 garlic clove
olive oil
salt
oregano
pepper
2 servings rice
Begin by cutting the tomato, yellow pepper, and onion into small pieces. In a pan, heat up some olive oil and then add the onion and garlic clove. After cooking for about 5 minutes or so, add the yellow bell pepper. Take the outer skin off of the sausage, and when the vegetables are soft, add and cook the sausage meat to the mixture.
While everything is cooking, begin preparing the rice. When the sausage is nearly cooked, add the cut tomato to the sausage, yellow pepper, and onion mixture. Also add 1/2 jar tomato puree and salt, oregano, and pepper to taste. Let the tomato sauce cook in the mixture for at least 10-15 minutes. When the rice is cooked, pour the rice in and mix together.
And, feel free to enjoy the leftovers for breakfast with a fried egg on top!
This blog is named churros con chocolate to remember the time I spent living in Madrid, Spain-where I first learned of the cultural importance of food and developed a love for enjoying food from all over the world.

Welcome
Welcome to my blog. My blogging journey began about in August 2009 as a photo-a-day blog which has since transitioned to combine my love of good food and photography. Today, using as many local and fresh ingredients as we can, my boyfriend and myself spend time researching recipes, making our own adaptations, cooking, taking photos, eating, and finally reflecting on all or part of the above listed process here. I hope you take the time to not only read and look at our photos, but please cook some of the recipes yourself. You are invited and encourage to leave feedback as we continue our culinary journey!
