This healthy dish is very versatile and easy to throw together. The meat can be changed to any kind of sausage and kale would work for the greens. I like it mild but it can be made with a kick depending on the type of Cajun seasoning you choose. You will be amazed at the beautiful presentation. The colors are so vibrant!
