Ingredients

Potatoes: use large potatoes or baby potatoes

Kielbasa sausages: these are precooked Polish sausages, they are smoky, juicy, and delicious. If you can’t find this type if sausage where you live, feel free to use any other smoked sausages such as chorizo. For a healthier version sub with turkey or chicken kielbasa.

Onion: I used brown onion for its sweetness but you can use any type and color of onions you want.

Olive oil: this can be substituted with any other flavorless oil of choice.

All-purpose seasoning, I used my homemade all-purpose seasoning and it contains onion granules, garlic granules, thyme, parsley and oregano, and smoked paprika.

Garlic granules: substitute with garlic powder, fresh garlic might burn depending on how you cut so, I wouldn’t recommend it.

    1. Hi Bev, I haven’t personally frozen these before because they don’t last that long honestly. I think you should be able to freeze it, just cook it directly from frozen in the air fryer or oven when you are ready to eat it. If you do try it, kindly let me know so we can all learn. Thank you
