2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1 T grated Parmesan cheese

I was looking for a way to use up some sausage I had in the freezer and found this recipe. I made it tonight for supper and thought it was surprisingly good for such a simple recipe. I didn't eat it on bread because I wanted to have dessert and needed to save up some calories.

I made it almost exactly as written except that I used garlic paste instead of minced garlic and I used quite a bit more. I also added a bit of hot pepper paste because my sausage was mild and I felt like a little more flavor. It turned out really good.
