CAJUN SHRIMP AND SAUSAGE SKILLET
Cajun Shrimp and Sausage Skillet is the BEST 20 minute meal packed with awesome cajun flavor with shrimp, sausage, and summer veggies. This makes a great low carb meal and is also great for meal prep!
Summertime is a time to eat fresh simple meals. Where we can utilize the vegetables we have been cultivating all spring. It is a time to grill out and eat outside. This Shrimp and Sausage skillet can be made anytime of year but it is especially good in the summer. It can be made on the grill or in your kitchen it really does not matter to me.
I love creating easy meals that are healthy and full of flavor. Since I don’t have a lot of time with a blog and family to run. I love when I can create a meal that is ready in no time at all. This one just happens to be ready in about 20 minutes! This is a great family meal, but I actually used it for meal prep. It is delicious served over some brown rice, or quinoa and the cajun flavor is my favorite.
Shrimp and sausage go so well together! You can use pork or chicken sausage in this and I love how delicious it makes this meal. Cajun seasoning is one of my all time favorites and packs in delicious spices and a little bit of heat. It is perfect for adding flavor to this quick and easy meal.
I included my favorite summer veggies. Zucchini, yellow squash, asparagus, and red bell pepper. It makes it a complete meal in one. This is the perfect flavorful meal and helps you stay on track. It is such a delicious and easy low carb option and I don’t get sick of eating it throughout the week!
If you are looking for a healthy and flavorful meal that is so incredibly easy, be sure to give this one a try!
