Broccoli, Cauliflower, and Sausage Stir Fry

Broccoli, Cauliflower, and Sausage Stir Fry – super quick and tasty with easily available ingredients. Perfect for weeknights.

It’s another harvest from Our Vegetable Garden and another stir fry. To our delight, the vegetable garden is doing fairly well in its first season. So far, we have had quite a few harvests. They were small harvests but no less joyful.

Veggies from Our Vegetable garden

This past weekend, we were rewarded with about half a pound of broccoli crowns. I thought that was the end of the broccoli but to my surprise, new heads are already growing from the main stalk. This is so much fun and we are loving it. 🙂

Bulking it up

Since half a pound of broccoli is not quite sufficient for one meal, I bulked up this Broccoli, Cauliflower, and Sausage Stir Fry with some store bought cauliflower and polish sausage. I also threw in a carrot for color.

Quick and easy Broccoli, Cauliflower, and Sausage Stir Fry

It took only minutes to prepare and an even shorter time to disappear from the dinner table. The boys said they wished there was more broccoli. Perhaps next year, we will grow a full bed of broccoli. Currently they are sharing a vegetable bed with Brussels sprouts and those seem to be taking a much longer time to bear fruit.
