We loved this quick and easy pasta dish! I used a locally made "hot" turkey Italian sausage which I cut into 2" pieces. I sauteed the sausage and vegetables in garlic-infused olive oil, and added a pinch of sugar to reduce the tartness of the vinegar. I served this topped with Parmesan cheese...yum! Thank you for sharing this very tasty recipe. **Made for Susie's World Tour 2019 - Italy**

We really enjoyed this. I made it with pork Italian sausage from our local farmer's market, cut into 1/2 inch chunks and then browned. I used a 28 ounce can of diced tomatoes instead of 14 ounce and sauteed the onions a while before adding the peppers so that the peppers were still crunchy when I started the simmering process. Will definitely make this again many times.

I loved this! I made a few changes just to use what I had on hand. I only had lean italian pork sausage so I used that instead of turkey. I removed the sausages from the casings, crumbled them and browned them first and let them drain on papertowel. I then added the vegetables and contined with the rest of the recipe as written. I thought I had a can of tomatoes which I found out last minute I didn't so I used about 2 cups of plain canned tomato sauce instead. Turned out delicious!! I will try it next time with turkey sausage and tomatoes as directed.
