Healthy Big Bowl Comfort food with vegetables. I made up this recipe. Both my 18-year-old son and 14-year-old daughter loved it – it’s not always easy to satisfy them both!

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage; cook until warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chopped asparagus, corn, and broccoli florets. Pour in broth; cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are almost cooked through, about 5 minutes.
