Best Sausage Cacciatore With Grandmas Peppers Recipes

SAUSAGE CACCIATORE WITH GRANDMA'S PEPPERS

Steps:

• 1. Prepare mock sauce & peppers if you do not have the canned peppers. The mock sauce isn't exactly the same, but will do in a pinch. NOTE: If preparing the mock sauce, you will omit the additional 14 oz. tomato puree. Place tomato puree, sauce, sugar, salt, cider vinegar, garlic & onion powder in saucepan. Bring to a simmer boil. Add cut up peppers and allow to cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, & cover until ready to use with sausage. (Covering will allow pepper flavoring to soak into sauce while preparing remainder of dish).
• 2. In a large skillet, add sausage, casings removed, and onions. Cook on low-medium heat until cooked through.
• 3. Add 2 pints of "Grandma Vinion's Canned peppers in Red Sauce" and tomato puree. If you are using mock sauce & peppers, add at this point. Add Italian seasoning. (photo is before adding tomato puree) Cover, simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• 4. In the meantime, prepare fettuccine- al dente, according to package directions. Drain & toss with a bit of EVOO to prevent sticking.
• 5. To serve, we serve fettuccine, then top with preferred amount of Sausage Cacciatore & top with Ramona cheese. Goes well with prepared fresh vegetables, broccoli, squash etc.
• 6. Can also serve up as a "Sausage Cacciatore Sloppy Joe" on fresh Italian Sausage rolls. My husband Loves this dish, and if we have any left overs, he takes the Sausage Sloppy Joe's for lunch.

SAUSAGE CACCIATORE

Steps:

• Cook onions and peppers over medium high heat for 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
• Add garlic, reduce heat to medium low and cook for 5 minutes more.
• Add tomatos and tomato soup, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Increase heat and bring to a boil, then reduce heat back to medium low and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Add sausage. If using raw sausage, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes or until sausage is completely cooked through. If using pre-cooked sausage, reduce simmering time to 10 minutes.
• Add zucchini and summer squash slices, and cook for 5-8 minutes more. Squash should still be firm, not mushy, but cooked through.
• Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes before serving.
• Serving suggestion: Spoon over angel hair or linguini. Also great with cheese tortellini. Pass the parmigiana!
