Directions
1.
In a small nonstick skillet cook and stir almonds for 1 to 2 minutes or until golden brown. Stir in raisins. Remove skillet from heat. Let stand for 1 minute. Carefully stir in vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Return to heat; cook and stir just until the sugar dissolves.
2.
Drizzle oil over sweet pepper strips and onion slices. Prick sausages several times with a fork. Grill vegetables and sausages on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until no pink remains in the sausages and vegetables are tender, turning once.
3.
In the large bowl toss the vegetables with the almond mixture; spoon onto a serving platter. Place sausages atop. Makes 6 servings.
