Introduction

My favorite dish to cook for a group of people, or the first time I cook for someone. It's impossible to screw up, there is minimal shopping required and it tastes amazing.

Ingredients

    1 Package Johnsonville Hot Italian Sausages
    1 Large Can of Crushed Tomatoes
    2-3 Tbsp Tomato Paste (I like Hunts Garlic)
    1/2 Cup Whipping Cream
    1-2 Packages of Fresh Basil
    Box of Whole Wheat Noodles of choice

Directions

Boil Pasta in water is salted so it tastes like the ocean, with a healthy dose of olive oil.

In large frying pan, squish the sausages out of their skins and fry on medium-high heat, breaking them up so they look like ground beef. Drain any excess fat.

Add Crushed Tomatoes and Tomato Paste, reduce to low heat. Add Whipping Cream. (Just enough to change the color) Allow to cook for 2-5 minutes, add chopped basil. (Cut thin, horizontally across the leaf)

Add drained pasta to frying pan, stir to completely coat. Make sure everything is nice and hot and serve!!

This pasta is very deceiving, make sure to start with a small serving.

If you like Parmesan Cheese tastes great on top.
