The beauty of this recipe lies not only in the ingredients, but in the preparation.

Broilers, people. I am ashamed to say that I never really appreciated my broiler until just recently.

Take something very simple, top with cheese or butter (or both), pop under the broiler for just a minute, and BAM. A good dish becomes great. A lazy, hodge-podge meal becomes a cohesive unit when combined under a mountain of cheese and high heat. For those of you who already knew this, congratulations on a life well lived. For those of you who were like me, welcome to the light!

Spicy Sausage and Broccoli Bake
  • 4 links of spicy venison sausage, casings off
  • 1 head of broccoli, in florets
  • 3 cloves garlic, diced
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese
  • salt and pepper
Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

Coat the broccoli florets and garlic in olive oil, salt, and pepper then spread onto a baking sheet in an even layer. Cook until tender and slightly browned, about 25-30 minutes.

While the broccoli cooks, brown the sausages in hot oil for about 5 minutes on each side, until cooked through.

Turn the broiler to high.

Transfer the cooked broccoli and garlic into a baking dish and top with the cooked sausages. Top with the mozzarella, then the parmesan cheese. Broil until brown and bubbly on top, about 5 minutes.

Pile onto a plate and enjoy! Great with crusty bread.
