My family LOVED this one. I got a little heavy handed with the onion, but that’s on me. GREAT recipe! Oh and I used macaroni noodles to keep the kids happy.

Sarah, I use a whole pound of linguine. I edited the recipe to show that. You may like a different proportion though.

hey I LOVE this recipe, made it twice. I can never seem to get the right proportions of pasta for the sauce though. Any advice on how much pasta to use?

Myself & the family liked this! I did not have the peppers, so I used a jar of sun-dried tomatoes instead, and used its oil instead of the butter for the sauce. Yumm-o! Oh, also threw in a packet of Good Season’s Italian Dressing Mix into the meat. Will make again!

We had this last night, it really was good. I should have made some extra sauce because I made this in the morning and stuck it in the fridge, causing the pasta to soak up much of the sauce. Because, my husband likes sauces …(“swimming in sauce”) . Everyone liked it very much . Verdict: Recipe is a keeper !

You could use regular sausage or just plain ground pork, turkey or beef.

I’ve never cooked Italian sausage because I hate fennel & caraway seeds. Is there such a thing as Italian sausage without them? If not, do you guys think bulk pork sausage would work OK? Not having eaten Italian sausage except for tolerating it on a Pizza Hut pizza, I don’t have a clear recollection of the taste to know what could be substituted.

Tried this recipe and it was great. I used “Aidell’s Italian Sausage with mozarella cheese” from Costco and it was delicious. It complimented the mozarella in the sauce. I couldn’t find the roasted red peppers in my area so I substituted with regular red peppers. A Pinot Grigio wine was served and everyone loved the meal. Thank you!

I made this and thought it was delish. And yes, it was even better the next day. Althought I had to substitute 1 cup evaporated milk and 1 cup whole milk for the 2 cups half and half because I didn’t have any. It did not make it any less flavorful.

I made this tonight and it was really good. I thought my Italian Sausage was a little spicy though. I guess it would work with burger too?
