It has been a long time since writing a new recipe- life has been insane! I traveled to see family and ended up being gone longer than planned. Then, I started a new job! I have tried a few new recipes, but only one has been “blog worthy”. My husband has already requested this recipe again and I made it for the first time last week! It was Italian sausage and Pasta. This was a very quick meal I threw together after work one night, and it turned out great!
What do you need: Italian Sausage Links, Rigatoni pasta, 1 can zesty diced tomatoes, 1 can garlic oregano diced tomatoes, 1 can tomato sauce, small can mushrooms, ½ white onion, mozzarella cheese, and seasonings.
First, put the water on to boil for the pasta- that is something I forget to do and it takes longer then to make the meal!! Then, cook the sausage links as directions state. While the sausage is cooking, dice about ½ of a white onion and them to the sausage. Next add the mushrooms and minced garlic. Take out the sausage when done and finish browning the mushrooms and onions. Slice the sausage into pieces. When the pasta is done, add the sausage and mushroom/ onion mixture to the pasta. Then, add one can of tomato sauce, zesty diced tomatoes, garlic and oregano diced tomatoes (juices included). Mix it all together and heat on high. Season with garlic, Italian seasonings, and basil. I also added crushed red peppers and a dash of Pete’s hot sauce. It can be omitted if you do not like spicy foods. This meal was quick and easy! Great and easy meal to prepare on a busy night.
Happy cooking!
