A hearty and flavorful dinner made in under 30 minutes with just 3 ingredients? It’s possible! Plus you’ll have less dishes to wash since you can cook this meal up in one skillet. As if that wasn’t enough, it costs about $10, too!
Awhile back I asked my readers what their biggest challenge was when it came to cooking dinner. One of the most common responses was a lack of time, especially when you get home after a long day of work.
So I’ve been hard at work creating some easy dinners that involve few ingredients and less than 30 minutes to make, including prep time. This Sausage and Potato Skillet is my latest creation!
This recipe starts with 3 ingredients that are really inexpensive. Can you believe this meal serves 4 and costs around $10? It’s easy and doesn’t cost much more to up the amounts of ingredients to serve more people or to provide bigger portion sizes.
If you really want to get dinner ready in a flash, you could cut up the sausage, asparagus and potatoes the night before and keep them in the fridge until you are ready to cook. You’ll have dinner ready in a matter of minutes!
It may be easy and cheap, but this dinner is sure to be a hit with your family! It’s definitely going on the regular rotation for us.

I love potatoes and always wonder why I don’t prepare them more often. This looks like a great way to make a healthy, quick, and delicious meal! And I could definitely see eating the leftovers for breakfast or lunch.
