5 Trader Joe's Chicken Sausage Recipes

Katie Kelly

Trader Joe's Chicken Sausage is one of my go-to Trader Joe's products! I love keeping it in the fridge for a quick and easy protein to add to a meal. Here are some recipes to spark inspiration!

1. Air Fryer Chicken Sausage

You can use your favorite chicken sausage and seasonal veggies for this one! I like serving this with a side of frozen brown rice from TJ's.

2. Chicken Sausage and Pesto Pasta

I love pairing their sweet Italian, spicy Italian, or roasted garlic chicken sausage with some brown rice pasta, and some veggies (like cherry tomatoes, mushrooms + onions) with pesto for an easy weeknight dinner. Simply cook your pasta, and saute your veggies and chicken sausage. Toss it all together with pesto or your favorite pasta sauce.

3. One Pot Chicken Sausage and Rice

This easy sausage and rice one-pot casserole is one of my favorite weeknight meals to make. There is plenty of servings in this sausage and rice recipe, so whether you're cooking for two and want leftovers as an easy meal prepping idea or you're looking for a healthy dinner idea for the family, this is it.

4. Baked Cauliflower Gnocchi with Chicken Sausage

I love the cauliflower gnocchi from Trader Joe's and adding chicken sausage makes it such an easy dinner recipe! I always like to add veggies like spinach or peas to make it a well-rounded meal.

5. Breakfast Skillet or Tacos

You can add the spicy jalapeno, roasted garlic, or andouille chicken sausages into a breakfast skillet or breakfast potatoes for a protein and flavor-loaded breakfast.
