NOTES
- Recipe modified from the blog From the Girl Who Ate Everything
- My husband asked me to make this again soon!
- 1 lb ground sausage (regular Italian or spicy would be fine - turkey or pork)
- 1 c. chopped onion
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 16 oz can Italian style diced tomatoes
- 1 8 oz can tomato sauce
- 1 c. heavy cream
- 5-6 big leaves of fresh basil, chopped
- 12 ounces penne pasta
- Grated Parmesan for topping
- Salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
1. Cook the pasta in salted water just until al dente, according to package directions.
2. While pasta is cooking, cook the sausage in a large skillet until starting to brown, breaking it up and stirring every so often. Then add 1/4 c. water and cover the skillet until the water starts to simmer. Turn down heat a bit and stir every so often until the water has evaporated and the sausage is cooked through.
3. Add the onions and garlic to the sausage and saute for a few minutes.
4. Add the can of diced tomatoes and the tomato sauce and bring to a low simmer.
5. Add in the cream and bring to a low simmer for a few minutes.
6. Stir in the fresh basil and then mix the pasta in with the sauce. Top each serving with some Parmesan cheese if desired.
