Kielbasa Recipes

While I love making a hearty meal for my family, when it comes to busy weeknights I don’t always have the time to make a five course dinner. I try to use simple main ingredients to make a great recipe that’s still east but that my whole family will love.

With its smoky flavor and cheaper price, smoked sausage like kielbasa is a versatile ingredient loved by all. You’ll love adding these delicious kielbasa recipes to your dinner rotation.

  • Bell peppers
  • Olive oil
  • Chicken broth
  • Green peppers
  • White rice
  • Cheddar cheese
  • Yellow onion

How to Serve

Easy sausage kielbasa recipes can be served as a main dish to many great side dish recipes. I like to serve mine with a potatoes recipe. Small red potatoes or even mashed potatoes would be a delicious recipe to pair with kielbasa.

Potato salad, a green beans recipe, a pasta dish or any number of hearty soups make this a complete delicious meal. 

Storage and Freezing

All of these amazing kielbasa recipes will be slightly different, but it’s a safe bet to store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
