Ingredients
- 1 tbs coconut oil, divided (or cooking fat of choice – avocado oil or ghee)

- 2 medium apples, cored and diced
- 4 Apple & Gouda Chicken Sausages (Amylu), cut into bite-size pieces
- 1⁄2 tsp. dried sage

- Add 3 Tbsp. water and diced apple. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Move vegetable mixture to one side of the pan. Add remaining coconut oil and sausage mixture. Allow the sausage to cook a few minutes to get a nice sear on it (it comes precooked).
