Pasta Dinner Anyone?

Following a busy weekend, we needed a yummy Pasta dish that was easy to throw together, because Sundays are not for cooking the day away! This is our go to! 

Roasted Red Pepper and Italian Sausage Pasta

1 pound of Pasta (I usually go for a Fusilli or Penne pasta, but recently I have been loving the Lensi Red Lentil and Yellow Lentil pastas)
2 jars of Classico Roasted Red Pepper Alfredo sauce
1 can of GV brand fire roasted diced tomatoes with seasonings
1 package of Italian Sausage (sweet and hot)
1 stalk chopped celery
a handful chopped onion


How to make it:
1. Put sausage on a baking tray and place in oven on 400 degrees for 15 minutes, or until cooked thoroughly (internal temp of 160), turning the links once.
2. Boil Pasta according the box directions and drain once cooked to Al Dente.
3. Add sauce, tomatoes, celery and onion. 
4. Chop the Italian Sausage into bite size pieces and mix into Pasta.  Cook on low for until the sauce is warmed.
5. Serve topped with fresh shaved Parmesan cheese. 

This makes for a super easy, week night dinner! We have made our own sauce, but we like to keep jarred sauces on hand for busy nights.
