Instructions
- 01
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Salt the water and add the pasta. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or the pasta is cooked to al dente. Drain.
- 02
While the pasta is cooking, heat up a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sausage to the pan. Break it apart and cook for 5 minutes. Some oil and fat will release from the sausage—this is fine, leave it.
- 03
Add the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and the onion to the pan with the sausage. Season with a dash of salt and pepper.
- 04
Cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the veggies become soft and the sausage is completely cooked through.
- 05
Pour in the jar of marinara sauce. Mix together and let the mixture completely heat through, until the sauce starts to bubble—about 2-3 minutes.
- 06
You can either toss in the pasta in the skillet, or scoop some of the sausage mixture on beds of pasta already divvied into bowls.
- 07
Top with grated parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes, if desired.
