Meanwhile cook pasta, al dente.

Terri’s Cooking Wiser Tips:
Make it your own
Create your own with added ingredients, try meatballs and/or sundried tomatoes for added richness or add ground beef in place of or with the Italian sausage
Or stuff red and green peppers with pasta, top with cheese and bake
