@LilBitMissty Thank you for posting your recipe. I had a question on the sausage though. What kind of sausage do you use? Something like kielbasa or more like breakfast links?

Thank you for the recipe! I had all the ingredients and so I made this for dinner last night.

I found it to be far too sweet for us, but DH liked it OK. He loves sausage and although I'm not a huge fan, I see that this could be used with chicken, shrimp, and pork. I plan to give it another go, but use HALF the sugar.

I like sweet/sour to be more tangy and less sweet.

Thank you for showing me how to make a simple sauce.

Would this recipe feed four adults. Not sure if I should double the recipe. Sounds yummy.

luvdoodles...hi there. Nice to meet you. This recipe will generally serve 4. However, if you dont have anything to go with it ( like salad or soup) I would double it. Generally when I fix this I have salad and a green veggie to go with it, and I don't double the recipe (serves 4 easliy)...hope that helps. Please let me know the outcome.
