  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Cook the sausages in a skillet over medium-low heat until browned, about 5 minutes per side; move them to an oven-safe dish and keep warm in the preheated oven.

  3. 3

    Put the potatoes in a saucepan over medium heat and cover with water; bring to a boil, then simmer until the potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions; cook, stirring, until translucent and just starting to brown, about 8 minutes. Pour in the beef broth and red wine; bring to a boil and simmer until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.

  5. 5

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
