Italian Sausage and Pasta Casserole
Ready In: 35 mins
Serves: 8
Ingredients
- 13 1⁄2 ounces pasta (any kind)
- 1 lb sweet Italian turkey sausage
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 medium zucchini, sliced thin
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon fennel seed
- 1 teaspoon thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon dry basil
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- 1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- salt and pepper
- 1 cup feta cheese
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Prepare pasta as directed, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
- As pasta is cooking, cook Italian sausage as desired. (I like to pre-cook sausages, as they are easier to cut once they are already cooked.).
- After sausages are cooked, remove from pan and set aside.
- In a large pan, saute onion, peppers, zucchini, and garlic in olive oil until opaque.
- Season with cumin, thyme, basil, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
- Slice sausages into bite-size pieces, then add sausages, tomatoes, and pasta to the vegetables and stir.
- Spray large casserole dish with cooking spray and transfer entire mixture into dish.
- Top with feta cheese.
- Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 15-20 minutes, until cheese starts to melt.
