A easy meal for those busy nights🫶

This meal is perfect for picky eaters and a long day everyone I’ve made this for loves it and it’s super easy!

You’ll need

2 packs of Knorr cheddar broccoli noodles

1 pack of hillshire sausage cut up how u like

And 1 bag of frozen broccoli

All you do is brown your sausage to your liking. Put it in a big pot then add your cheddar broccoli noodles according to package instructions. Next add your frozen broccoli to the same pot and cook until most of the liquid is gone and until noodles are done it’s that easy and it’s soooooo good! ENJOY! 😊
