Ingredients

Garnish:

  • parsley
  • cheese

Instructions

  • Fill a stock pot with water, bring to a boil, add salt, then drop in the noodles. Cook 1 minute less than the package directions. Drain but do NOT rinse. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a large skillet cook the sausage until juices run clear and the meat is browned.
  • Toss in the diced shallots and diced roasted red peppers, cook in the pan with the sausage for about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add pasta sauce, parmesan cheese, sugar, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil while stirring to combine. Remove from heat.
  • Add the cooked pasta into a large casserole dish. Pour the sauce over top. Mix thoroughly until well combined. Add the cheese over top. Place the casserole dish in the preheated 400 degree F oven and cook for about 12 to 18 minutes, or until the cheese starts to brown.
  • Remove from the oven and dig in.
  • Serve with a big old cheesy, sausage loving smile!
