How to make Apple Chicken Sausage and Harvest Vegetable Skillet

- Add the apple, kale, broth, apple cider vinegar, and thyme. Allow to simmer for 3-4 minutes or until the broth has absorbed, the apple is soft, and the kale is wilted.

Can you make this recipe with a different kind of sausage?
The apple chicken sausage from Applegate is the best option to keep this recipe whole30, but if you have a local option you prefer that’s sugar free, that will certainly work for this recipe!
Can you make this recipe AIP?
Most sausage isn’t AIP-compliant. This is the bratwurst that I like to use for a nightshade-free sausage, but it’s not AIP-friendly. To make this recipe AIP, you can use ground pork or turkey instead of regular sausage.
