WHAT I LOVE ABOUT JOHNSONVILLE BETTER FOR YOU SAUSAGE
We have had Johsonville Sausage before (and loved it) and I wasn’t sure how the Better For You Sausage would taste, but let me tell you – it far surpassed my expectations! For my recipe, I used the Johnsonville Better For You Sausage in the 3 Cheese Italian Style and Chipotle with Monterey Jack Cheese and they were so yummy. Not only were they yummy, but they smelled really good too! I also love that the sausages were separated from each other in the packaging so that each sausage was not touching the other sausage in the package.
You can find a variety of Johnsonville Better-for-You Sausage flavors at your local grocery store. You’ll find the big, bold Johnsonville flavors you love and crave, but with 50% less fat! How sweet is that?

I’ve never made this before either but I’ll bet it is terrific. I love rotel tomatoes in so many things so that alone tells me this will be a great recipe. I have bought the Johnsonville sausage many times, we love that.
