This was the last week of One Local Summer for 2013. Things were starting to get really busy with my photography business and I just didn’t have the time to dedicate to going to the market, finding ingredients, planning the meal, cooking, and doing a blog post. I was purely in microwave-the-leftovers mode, and the husband was out to his ship for a longer than normal stretch. Still, I made it to November 5th, and did 24 weeks of meals which is really pretty decent! This particular meal is one that I only make when the husband is gone since he absolutely loathes fennel. It’s SO easy to make and tastes SO good! Layer the sweet potatoes and fennel on the bottom of a baking pan with olive oil, salt, and pepper, bake for 30 minutes, then add the sausage on top until that’s done. Somehow all the flavors melt together just right and it’s magic.
Now, I’m FINALLY all caught up, and am looking for ideas for meals for 2014. If you happen to have any and want to share, please leave me a comment!
