Ziti With Sausage and Broccoli image

A nice meal made entirely on the stovetop. The kids liked it except that they thought the meat was a little spicy, so use less if cooking for the smalls. I use Bob Evans Italian sausage Instead of the Italian link sausage the recipe calls for. From Southern Living.

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb Italian sausage
8 ounces uncooked ziti pasta, I use whole wheat
2 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen and thawed)
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dry crushed red pepper (or less to taste)
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, undrained
1/2 cup grated romano cheese or 1/2 cup parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Cut sausage diagonally into 1/2" thick slices (just crumble and brown if using a roll of ground sausage). Cook in a large non stick skillet over med-high heat until browned; remove sausage and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions, adding broccoli during the last 5 minutes of cooking time. Drain.
  • Cook garlic and red pepper in oil in skillet, stirring constantly, until lightly browned; add tomatoes and cook until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat and keep warm.
  • Toss pasta and broccoli gently with sausage, tomato mixture, and cheese. Serve immediately.
