You don't need to spend loads of time in the kitchen creating an irresistible pasta dish. Simply jazz up a jar of store bought Alfredo sauce with Italian sausage, vegetables, past and seasonings. Ingredients:
1 pound bulk italian sausage |
1 medium onion, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
4 quarts water |
1 package (19 ounces) frozen cheese tortellini |
3 cups frozen mixed vegetables |
1 jar (15 ounces) alfredo sauce |
1/4 cup minced fresh basil or 3 teaspoons dried basil |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook sausage, onion and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, bring water to a boil. Add pasta and vegetables. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until pasta is floating and vegetables are tender; drain.
2. Add to skillet; mix well. Pour sauce over top. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with basil; toss to coat. Yield: 6 servings.
