Spicy Sausage Wraps with Golden Onions & Spinach
Published: Nov 02, 2009 12:00 am - 0
For a more assertively flavored wrap, substitute arugula for the spinach and shredded provolone for the mozzarella. If you like, use sweet sausage instead of hot. If you substitute pork for turkey, you may want to drain all but a few Tbsp. of fat from the pan before adding in your onions and greens. Serves 6.
1 pound bulk spicy turkey sausage meat
1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
8 cups chopped fresh spinach
1 Tbsp. minced garlic
2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
6 burrito-size flour tortillas
In a large skillet over medium-high, cook the sausage meat until no longer pink, about 6 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a dish and set aside. Leave any fat in the skillet.
Return the skillet to the stove over medium heat. Add the oil and onions, then saute until golden and softened, about 10 minutes.
Stir in the spinach and garlic, cover the pan and cook until the greens are tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in the mozzarella, Parmesan and the reserved sausage. Season with salt and pepper.
Divide the filling among the tortillas. Fold in 2 sides and roll up, placing the wrap seam-side down. Heat the wraps in the microwave on high power until heated through, about 1 to 2 minutes. (Alternatively, heat the wraps in a 350 F oven for 5 to 7 minutes).
