Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Add the sausages to the pot and cook for 6-8 minutes until browned on all sides. Remove the sausages and set aside.

Stir in the baby spinach and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until wilted.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
