Starting Over

Truth be told, Johnnycakes and I haven't been cooking that much. Our schedules have been sort of nuts and I've been stressed out. We've been trying to eat remotely healthy but nothing worth writing about. I feel like I need to start over, so to speak.

Tonight we made some turkey Italian sausage on the grill while enjoying the beautiful Autumnal evening. We also chopped some red onion and green pepper, wrapped it in foil and tossed it on the grill along side the turkey sausage. In an attempt to embrace the "Oktoberfest" spirit occurring right now, I warmed some canned sauerkraut to top the sausage with. I love the stuff! I don't want the season to pass us by without showing a little spirit! To round out the meal, I burned some fordhook lima beans. I didn't mean to but I guess I had the heat to high when I threw the frozen legumes into the hot pan. I coated them with melted Smart Balance but they still burned.
I know it doesn't look too pretty but it least it was healthy, cheap and tasty!
