Cheese

Look for the Proudly Wisconsin Badge when shopping for cheese. Any brand of Wisconsin Gouda can be used in this recipe.

Instructions

Warm 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage; cook and flip for 5-7 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove sausage from the skillet. Keep warm.
Sauté sweet potatoes in remaining olive oil in the same pan over medium-high heat for 5 minutes. Add the apples, onion, sage and cayenne pepper; cook and stir over medium heat for 5-6 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Stir in sausage. Cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until heated through.
Reduce heat to low. Sprinkle with gouda; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Recipe Tip

Ambrosia or Pink Lady apples would also work in this recipe.

Cheesemonger Tip

Crafted in 12-pound wheels, Maple Leaf Smoked Gouda is naturally smoked with applewood. Great for melting, this cheese is also a tasty treat served sliced on a sandwich.
