Broccoli Sausage Orecchiette - 4 year part 1

Nick and I just celebrated our 4 year anniversary this weekend!! Our original date was October 22, however we've made it a tradition to go to a Bed & Breakfast for the weekends and nothing was available till November 7th. At any rate, it was the best weekend we've had and took tons of photos of all our experiences.

We checked in The 1907 Bragdon House on Friday at 6pm. I made us dinner in advance knowing we would be to tired to find a place to eat dinner, plus we had a 6 hour wine tour on the schedule for Saturday and needed plenty of rest for our bodies and wallets.

Using the rest of the Venison Sausage, I made this 1-2 dish dinner, which was soo filling and amazing! Extremely easy to do and takes less than a half hour!
