  • 1 medium garlic clove(s), minced
  • 1 medium onion(s), thinly sliced
  • 1 cup mushroom(s), sliced
  • 1 pound raw turkey sausage, spicy-Italian flavor
  • 1/8 tsp dried oregano, crushed
  • 1/4 tsp table salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
  • 1/4 small tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 14 1/2 oz canned diced tomatoes
  • 3 cup cooked whole wheat pasta, penne, kept hot
  • 6 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

directions

  • 1

    Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and set pan over medium-high heat. Add green pepper, garlic, onion and mushrooms; cook, stirring frequently, until almost tender, about 7 to 8 minutes.

  • 2

    Remove turkey from casings; add to skillet and brown sausage until no longer pink, stirring occasionally, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 6 minutes. Add oregano, salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes; stir in tomatoes. Simmer until heated through and to allow flavors to blend, about 5 minutes.

  • 3

    Spoon penne into a deep serving bowl; spoon sausage mixture over top and then sprinkle with cheese. Yields about 1 1/2 cups per serving.
