Easiest Sausage and Peppers

While we remain steadfast in our philosophy that to survive and thrive as a vegan, nothing beats a minimally processed, whole foods diet

 1 tablespoon olive oil
 1 package vegan sausage (we used Beyond Sausage Sweet Italian), sliced diagonally into coins
 2 large red bell peppers, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch strips
 2 large yellow onions, halved and cut into thin slices
 3 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced or minced
 2 teaspoons dried oregano
 1 teaspoon salt
 ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
 ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
 4 hoagie rolls or buns for serving

Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Line a plate with a paper towel or brown bag. Working in batches, arrange sliced sausage in a single layer in pan. Cook for several minutes on each side, until nicely browned and crispy around the edges, about 8 to 10 minutes total. When cooked, transfer sausages to the lined plate. In the same pan, add peppers, onions, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper. Cook, while stirring occasionally, until peppers and onions are very soft, about 12 to 15 minutes. When vegetables are done, add sausage back into the pan to warm. Stir and cook for a few minutes more. Serve immediately on rolls or buns.
