This is something I threw together for a simple quick dinner one night for my boyfriend and I. We were both craving sausage, but we didn’t want it in the same way we usually eat it. The great thing about this recipe is that even the most novice cook, could prepare this for their family.
4 small servings or 2 large servings • 5-10 minutes prep time • 30 minutes cook time
Ingredients
- 1 sweet red pepper julienned
- 1 c. cherry tomatoes sliced
- 1 1/2 minced garlic cloves {i used large cloves)
- 1/4 c. fresh spinach finely chopped
- 1/2 c. mozzarella pearls or add desired amount
- 2 Eckridge Beef sausage links – sliced
- 1/2 box (8oz) Rojoni 100% Whole Grain Penne Pasta {can add more if desired}

Cook together on about low-medium to medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes {all depends on your stove top}. Do not cook food on skillet for too long you do not want it to become soggy.
