Pasta hot links

Made another pasta creation last night.

Basically I just cooked the pasta per the box instructions. Then I sauteed some onions in evoo, then added some cut up hot link sausages from whole foods to the mix and stirred until they were cooked. Once cooked, I added the pasta back and stirred it all together for a few minutes.


I added some shredded parm and it was delicious.

It is also extremely easy to make and uses only one pot to cook (if you have a place to put the noodles while you cook the onions/ sausage)


What is your favorite pasta dish to make?

I'm a sucker for rotini or angel hair pasta with a creamy tomato sauce.

Saucy!

Made sauce from scratch last night. It was my own recipe. I decided to take this on because I bought a jar of commercial sauce last week and I couldn't eat it because it was too salty.

I think each week I'll create a new recipe for sauce or pasta-combo.


Ingredients! Tomatoes, paste, onion, garlic, shallot, italian seasoning




The veggies sautéing in olive oil. Then once the onions were almost clear I added some Italian seasoning and stirred for another minute.



Added the paste and a little water to the pot and also added 2 chicken stock cubes.

Next i dumped in the 2 cans of tomatoes.



Brought the goodness to a boil and Then let it simmer for around 45 minutes.

Finished product:



Healthy.



A little less healthy with the cheese.

Also had mozzarella baked garlic bread And some meatballs and sausage from the Italian place near my house.

Good carb loading for my long run this weekend!

Yum!!
