We often like to use sausage in our recipes. We cook all types of sausage, in all sorts of different ways! Whether we grill them, cut them into pieces and put them in a dish or just pop them into the microwave, we have never been disappointed by Al Fresco chicken sausage.
One way of eating sausage we had yet to try was in a salad. So when we were sent Al Fresco’s Sweet Apple Chicken Sausage to taste, we thought this would be a perfect sausage flavor for a salad!
And it was! Delicious…
We added this sweet sausage to one of our favorite summer salads, a simple pear and apple salad:

Directions:
Grill 2 Al Fresco Chicken sausages and slice into chunks. Let cool.

In a smaller bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Add dressing to your salad, per your desired taste.
