I love a skillet dinner! It comes together quickly, cooks in one pan…doesn’t get much better than that! This Vegan Sausage & Peppers Rice Skillet has the perfect balance of veggies, protein and carbs. It truly is a complete meal. Great for a weeknight dinner or meal prepped lunches!

Making the Vegan Sausage

The first thing on the to-do list is browning the vegan sausage. I used Beyond Meat Spicy Italian sausage that I cut into rounds. Add them to a skillet with olive oil and cook for a couple minutes on each side, or until browned. Remove from the skillet, but leave the leftover oil.

TIP: Feel free to sub your favorite vegan sausage if you like another brand better!

We Need Veggies

We can’t have a sausage & peppers recipe without the peppers. Once the sausage is out of the skillet add in 2 bell peppers (any color will work), yellow onion, garlic and some dry seasonings.

You want to let the veggies cook down for a couple minutes, giving everything a good mix while it cooks.

Finish it Off and Serve

Pour dry white rice into the skillet with the veggies and let it get toasty – a couple minutes max. Pour in the broth and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes. You want the rice to be tender and all of the liquid to be absorbed.

Once the rice is cooked, it is time to finish it off. Add the sausage back and give everything a mix. Have a taste to see if it needs any salt. And now, my friend, you are DONE! Finish it off with some fresh parsley and serve it up.

If you plan to make this for meal prep, separate everything into 4 containers and let it cool completely before placing it in the fridge. This recipe needs to be on your rotation!
