Penne Pasta With Squash and Sausage

Ok I haven't posted in a while it's been a crazy week. So here is a recipe from last week that I tried. It is penne pasta squash and sausage with red sauce.

Ingredients:
  • Penne Pasta
  • Sausage
  • Mini Green and Yellow Squash
  • Mini Zucchini
  • Pesto
  • Organic Crushed Tomatoes
  • Olive Oil
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Parmesan Cheese
What you need to do is start the pasta so that the noodles begin cooking. In a large pan at medium heat add olive oil squash, zucchini, and sausage. Cook ingredients in the pan until squash is tender and the sausage is cooked completely. Once the squash and sausage is cooked add the organic crushed tomatoes. Begin to warm the sauce, while stirring in the tomatoes make sure to add pesto to give the sauce some flavor.
Now to check on the pasta. The noodles should boil for the amount of time mentioned on the package. You want to make sure they are as the Italians would say "al dente" or to the tooth. You don't want the noodles to be too soft because they continue to cook after you shut off the water and add the sauce.

Take the noodles out of the water and add them to another bowl. Top the noodles with the sauce, veggies, and sausage in the other pan. Finally add Parmesan.
