Meal Idea – Pasta with Peppers and Sausage

by Christine on July 29, 2010

Tonight we tried out a really good pasta dish. I am someone that could live off of pasta, but the Hubby is not one who could. So off I went hunting for something that we’d both enjoy. Well, we both enjoyed it! Here it is…

Pasta with Peppers and Sausage

What You Need…

1 spray(s) cooking spray
2 medium green pepper(s), cut into thin strips
1 medium garlic clove(s), minced
1 medium onion(s), thinly sliced
1 cup(s) mushroom(s), sliced
1 pound(s) raw turkey sausage, spicy-Italian flavor
1/8 tsp dried oregano, crushed
1/4 tsp table salt
1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
14 1/2 oz canned diced tomatoes
3 cup(s) cooked whole wheat pasta, kept hot
6 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

What You Do with What You Need…

Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and set pan over medium-high heat. Add green pepper, garlic, onion and mushrooms; cook, stirring frequently, until almost tender, about 7 to 8 minutes.

Remove turkey from casings; add turkey to skillet and brown until no longer pink, stirring occasionally, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 6 minutes. Add oregano, salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes; stir in tomatoes. Simmer until heated through and to allow flavors to blend, about 5 minutes.

Spoon pasta into a deep serving bowl; top with sausage mixture and sprinkle with cheese. Yields about 1 1/2 cups per serving.

And ta-da! This is what you get…
