We are always looking for ways to bring a little bit of that flavor home to Missouri and this skillet does just that. I know that we don’t include any seafood in this asparagus sausage skillet, but we live in Missouri. So fresh, flavorful seafood isn’t exactly available on every street corner. We make due with what we have and dream of the day we get to go back to the Gulf coast.

The idea for this recipe actually came from my sister (thanks Aub!). She’s a busy mom of the worlds cutest toddler and fully understands just how hard it is cook with kids around on a time limit. You wouldn’t think that a four year old would be that busy but between swim practice and dance and preschool events there is hardly any time for long, tedious recipes. This is a quick go to meal that the kid will eat and the adults will actually enjoy.
