Here is another easy recipe that I found in my Evernote account.

This is an easy skillet dish.  Enjoy with easy peasy garlic bread.

Sausage Skillet Pasta

Stars of the recipe:

• 1/2 box of penne pasta or any other small pasta
• 1 pound sausage (Italian, mild, or hot)
• 1/2 onion, diced
• 1 (15 oz.) can of crushed tomatoes
• 1 Tbsp. sugar
• 1/4 c. sliced black olives
• 1 Tbsp. Italian seasoning
• 1/4 c. Italian cheese blend or Parmesan cheese, for serving

Steps:

1. Cook pasta following directions on box.  (Can use any small shape)
2. In a separate pan, brown sausage.  (I used mild.)
3. After it’s almost fully browned, add diced onions.  Cook until the sausage is fully browned.
4. Add crushed tomatoes, sugar to cut the acidity of the tomatoes, 1 Tbsp. of Italian seasoning, and sliced black olives.
5. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.
6. Add the cooked pasta.
7. Sprinkle Italian cheese blend or Parmesan cheese over pasta and sauce.

Happy eating,
