Save RecipeIngredients
- 4-5 Italian sausages (about 1 pound) found in the fresh meat department (I used turkey Italian sausage)
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (16 ounce) can Italian-style diced tomatoes
- 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
- 1 cup half-and-half
- 1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
- 12 ounces penne pasta (get a 16 ounce box and use 3/4 of it)
- grated Parmesan for topping
Instructions
- Cook the pasta in salted water al dente, according to package directions.
- While pasta is cooking, brown the sausages and cut them into slices (I actually removed the casings and then browned and crumbled the sausages like you would ground beef).
- Add the onions and garlic to the sausage and saute for a couple of minutes.
- Pour in the entire can of diced tomatoes and the tomato sauce and heat through.
- Pour in the half-and-half and heat through. The longer you cook the sauce the thicker it will get so simmer it until it is the consistency you want.
- Add the basil and let it simmer for a few minutes.
- Finally, mix the sausage sauce with the pasta and serve. Top each serving with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Serve with garlic bread and side salad.
