Looking for a way to spice up your baked beans? Sanguinar walks you through one delicious baked bean dish that moves the beans from the side to the main course. Check it out! :)
The prep time will take about 5-10 minutes, depending on how quickly you work.
What you need:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 large onion, chopped
3/4 cup chopped green pepper
Pinch each of kosher salt and black pepper
3 large cloves garlic, chopped
8 ounces hot Italian sausage, removed from casing
2 cans (28 ounces each) baked beans, preferably Bush's
3/4 cup Mutha Sauce. This sauce is optional. I sometimes skip it, but it is pretty good.
1. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and peppers and cook til soft adding a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss in the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
2. Crumble sausage into the veggies and cook, chopping to break the meat into small pieces. Cook until it is no longer pink. Drain off some of the bean liquid in each can so that it's at the same height as the beans; then mix the contents of both cans into the cooked veggies and sausage.
3. Turn down the heat down to medium-low and add all the rest of the ingredients. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Serve immediately, or cool and reheat before serving (lettin' the flavors blend a while never hurts).

Brewfest Came Early! It's Time for Sausages!
This is an easy way to make really yummy sausage and peppers. Eat these on a sub, with noodles, or you can eat them by themselves.
What you need:
1 pack of Italian (or hot Italian) sausages, uncooked
1 large onion, cut into strips
1-2 Green Peppers, cut into strips
1 Tablespoon of olive oil
Nubsauce, canned Italian diced tomatoes or 1/2 cup of water
**Optional** Make this with some Nubsauce, or with a can of Italian diced tomatoes and serve with spaghetti. This will make the sausages stretch further, and you'll seem like a nice guy for sharing!
Step 1. In a large frying pan, place the unwrapped sausages. Cover these with water, and put the stove on medium heat. Let them cook for approximately 15-20 minutes
Turn the sausages and let them cook for another 5 minutes.
Step 2. Take the sausages out of the pan and let them cool on the cutting board for a few minutes. You will need to cut them. You can cut them any way you'd like. I like to cut some in half, and some into dials. In step 4 you will brown these sausages with the veggies.
Step 3. Drain the water out of the pan, and return it to the stove. Put the olive oil into the pan and start cooking the veggies on high. Stir them as needed. **You should be in the kitchen for this part, so plan it to be when you're on a fp, or are otherwise not needed at the computer. Don't worry this should only take about 5-7 minutes. While your veggies are getting a little grilled, cut your sausages and add them into the pan as you go. The sausages will brown pretty quickly with the pan on medium to high. Be sure to turn them and the veggies as you're adding more.
Step 4. Turn the stove heat to low, add your Nubsauce, or about 1/4 cup of water to the pan and let the peppers and onions get a little softer. Simmer for at least 5 minutes, but really as long as you check and occasionally stir you can simmer this much longer.

Goodlee's Monster Stromboli
This is a pretty big recipe for a stromboli. You will have some yummy leftovers to munch on later! It feeds like 5-6 people.
You can make this recipe Stromoli or Calzone style, which is explained at the bottom of the post. If you're in a rush or a newblet, calzone style is easier.
Mats:
2-4 bags of pizza crust dough. Not the stuff from the freezer section. I'm talking about the ones you actually have to add water too (often near the hamburger helper).
**Use 1 bag of the pizza dough mix for top and 1 bag for the bottom. Want more? Use 2 for the top and 2 for the bottom.
1 jar of pizza or spaghetti sauce. to go inside and also for dipping- which ever you prefer.
1 green pepper
1 yellow pepper
1 onion
1/2 lb Ham
1 bag of Salami (Koto Salami from Oscar Mayer)
1 bag of Pepperoni
1/2 lb of cooked Sausage
Your choice of a cheese. (Some shredded Mozzarella is delicious in this!)
Step 1. You are going to want to make the dough before you do anything else. Follow the directions on the dough packages. If you have not made dough before you can try using premade dough from your grocery store.
Step 2. Chop everything up. I usually throw it onto to cookie sheet that I'm going to put into the oven. It's easier that way, and you won't have to worry about moving it once its filled up with chopped goodness.
Step 3. Flatten out the dough long ways. Once you get it to the size you like, layer the bottom with some of the pizza sauce. Make sure to leave a little bit of space to pinch the top with the bottom when the time comes. Add the rest of your fillers. I like to add the meats first, followed by the peppers and onions. Then add the cheese. Use the other packs of crust to cover it up. Pinch around the edges so that everything stays inside
Step 4. Bake at 350 for about 25-30 minutes. Check on it. If the top is golden brown like a pizza crust then your in business. =)
Step 5. Now this is the hard part! Do not eat your Stromboli right away. Resist and wait for 3 minutes (cooling time to make slicing easier).
Step 6. Slice it up, and use the sauce as a dip. =)
**Tip** The difference between a stromboli and a calzone is really in how you roll it. Stromboli usually have the dough rolled around the meats, veggies, cheeses--creating a layered appearance (Think of the rolled dessert cakes, or jelly rolls). Calzones are more like pouches of meats, veggies, and cheese.

Sausage and Eggs
Most of us do not eat healthy 100% of the time. Sometimes bacon and eggs (or sausages) just hit the spot. Use turkey based sausages/bacon for a slightly less coronary clogging meal.
Remember eggs are actually very good for you! They are high in protein, and if you'd like to use a cooking spray or cook the eggs separately from the sausages this will save you a ton of calories.
What you need:
For an individual serving
2 eggs made your favorite way (in the photo they are "up")
3 pieces of sausage or bacon
1-2 pieces of toast
Serve with the toast on the side, or as a sandwich.
