Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil ($0.26)
  • 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar ($0.10)
  • 1/2 Tbsp stone ground or whole grain mustard* ($0.03)
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder ($0.02)
  • 1/8 tsp salt ($0.01)
  • Freshly cracked pepper ($0.05)
  • 3 bell peppers (any color) ($2.57)
  • 1 onion ($0.28)
  • 5 bratwurst links ($3.49)
  • 5 buns ($1.56)
  • 2 oz. cheddar (optional topping) ($0.50)
  • 4 Tbsp mustard (optional topping) ($0.24)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF. In a small bowl stir together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, stone ground mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set the vinaigrette aside.
  • Slice the bell peppers and onion into 1/4-inch strips and place them on a large baking sheet. Add the bratwurst links to the baking sheet, then drizzle the vinaigrette over top. Toss the peppers, onions, and bratwurst until everything is coated in vinaigrette.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 20 minutes, then give everything a good stir. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for another 20-25 minutes, or until the bratwurst, peppers, and onions, have browned on the edges.
  • Stuff the bratwurst, peppers, and onions into the buns and top with shredded cheddar if desired. Place them back in the oven for about 5 minutes to melt the cheese and toast the buns. Top with more mustard just before serving.
