Nancy Cox of Martinsville, Indiana spices up autumn evenings with this zippy stew, a blend of Italian turkey sausage, seasoned tomato broth, pasta and veggies. This reheats well and tastes even better the next day, she says.
Ingredients:
2 pounds turkey italian sausage links, casings removed
1 cup chopped onion
3/4 cup chopped green pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (15 ounces) italian-seasoned tomato sauce
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 cup water
1/2 cup beef broth
1/2 cup dry red wine or beef broth
1-1/2 cups cooked spiral pasta
1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
Directions:
1. In a large nonstick saucepan coated with cooking spray, cook the sausage, onion, green pepper and garlic until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the tomatoes, tomato sauce, mushrooms, water, broth and wine or additional broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour. Add pasta; heat through. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon cheese. Yield: 8 servings.
