This is a good pasta recipe that can be whipped up quickly on those busy nights when the kids have activities. When I have more time, I use fresh chopped tomatoes. The sausage is easier to slice if you stick it in the freezer for about 20-30 minutes to firm it up a bit. Cook time includes pasta cooking time. Ingredients:
1 lb bow tie pasta |
1 1/2 lbs sweet italian sausage, cut into 1/2-inch slices |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1/2 cup chopped green pepper |
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes or 2 cups chopped plum tomatoes |
1 tablespoon oregano |
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Cook bowtie pasta according to package directions; drain- do NOT rinse. 2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over med-high heat, brown sausage; drain if necessary. 3. Turn heat down to medium. Add oil, garlic, onion, green pepper, tomatoes and oregano to skillet with sausage and sautee and stir for about 5 minutes. Stir in cooked hot pasta and toss around to coat and heat through. 4. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and serve. |
