I’ve never appreciated pies the way I know a lot of other folks do. I love chocolate so much that I always feel if I’m going to eat something fattening, I want it to be super-decadent—and pies, to me, are not. If I’m going to eat something that tastes like fruit, I figure I might as well just eat fruit and save the additional calories to later get my chocolate fix. Then I started cooking fruit more, and it totally changed my view. Granted, I make fruit much cleaner (as in healthier) than putting it in pies, but there’s something really satisfying about a baked peach or a roasted grapefruit that just doesn’t come across in uncooked fruit. This makes a hearty amount, so it’s perfect for when you’re craving something sweet, and lots of it. If you want just a little something, I’d recommend sharing it with a buddy.

This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.
