PENNE WITH ZUCCHINI AND SAUSAGE



Penne With Zucchini and Sausage image

I got the idea for this recipe from a can of S&W Ready-Cut Diced Tomatoes with Onion and Bell Pepper. The recipe calls for crumbled sausage but my husband and I like our sausage sliced over pasta. It also calls for the pasta to be cooked in the skillet but I cook mine separately and added it to the sauce just before serving. Turned out delicious
