Spicy Sausage and Summer Squash Skillet

Spicy Sausage and Summer Squash Skillet recipe by Barefeet In The Kitchen

Fresh zucchini, grilled corn, and sausage are quickly sautéed and tossed with a handful of spices to create this super easy one-skillet meal. This easy dinner is also known as, “What to do with the BBQ leftovers?”

I made this for the first time last year using a bunch of leftovers from a summer barbecue with friends. Ever since then, I intentionally throw some extra brats on the grill and I remember to save a few ears of corn too.

This tasty meal takes almost no effort to put together and it tastes fantastic. The sausage adds great flavor to the vegetables and the fresh zucchini is the perfect compliment to the grilled corn.
