  1. We really liked this!!! I kept the onions and peppers separate from the linguica, as I have some haters. I had lots of onions and peppers left, and it was so good for days!
     
  2. Excellent sandwiches! We are kielbasa fans, and loved this combo of sauteed veggies and sausage. I served these up on toasted bakery hot dog buns, instead of the baguette for an easy weeknight meal. We will be making these again.
     
  3. Made this for dinner on a Saturday movie night. Followed the recipe exactly using reduced fat kielbasa and a California Syrah that we enjoyed with them. The kalamata olives was a nice addition, and they were finished off with a sprinkle of parmesan.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
