• When vegetables are as tender as you like, remove to a bowl and add sausage to skillet; cook until browned, stirring occasionally.
• (Note: Since they're fully-cooked, you can heat the sausages as little as 5 minutes if you're in a hurry. We like the flavor when they're really well-browned, so I often have to add a little more butter to prevent sticking.).
