Keto Kielbasa Sausage Bake

I fell in love with this meal after I had it at a friend’s house. They were kind enough to share the recipe with me and give me permission to share on the blog as well. 

It is chock full of flavor and can easily be doubled for meal prepping.

Keto Kielbasa Sausage Bake 

Ingredients

5 kielbasa sausages, sliced

2 bell peppers, sliced

1 medium onion, sliced

1/2 tsp garlic salt

1/2 tsp pepper

2 cups Raos marinara sauce

1 cup mozzarella, shredded 

Directions

Turn on broiler. Place sliced kielbasa in a single layer on parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Broil until browned, flip over, and broil until other side is also browned. (You can also do this on a barbecue) Remove from oven and set aside. 

Preheat oven to 375. 

In a frying pan over medium heat, cook pepper, onions, and seasonings until softened - about 5 minutes. 

Stir in the cooked kielbasa. 

Stir in the marinara sauce and then spoon into a 9 x 13 pan, or 5 individual serving pans if meal prepping. 

Top with the mozzarella cheese. 

Bake at 375 until bubbly and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. 

Serve hot. If freezing for later, let cool completely before covering and freezing. It will also last for a couple of days, covered, in the fridge. To reheat from freezing: place in preheated 350 oven until heated through. Can also be placed in microwave safe dish and microwaved. 

I double it quite often as my keto clients love it. It’s a great freezer meal for when you are short on time. 

I realize I didn’t put how big the kielbasa sausages were - I don’t actually know the size. I use the ones that are about 6 inches long and, when sliced, are about 1 (heaping) cup of slices…. Hopefully that helps. I’ve also used the large rings of kielbasa and measure a serving as about 1 cup of slices. 

Let us know if you give this a try! I absolutely love the flavors and textures of this dish 😊
