Simple Eats | Sausage & Red Pepper Pasta

So after running a poll following my ‘This Week for Dinner’ post, you all wanted to see this super quick and easy pasta recipe. And it is really easy too – using minimal ingredients and utensils. As a rule, I tend to only eat pasta once a week (and always whole wheat, too) but this is fast becoming one of my favourites and I could easily eat it again and again!

This recipe will serve two – or possibly stretch to leftovers for a third portion, depending on your appetite.

Ingredients

·         An onion, diced

·         8 mushrooms, sliced or quartered

·         4 pork sausages (I used Heck!), chopped

·         150g whole wheat pasta (I used fusilli)

·         6 stalks of tenderstem broccoli

·         A red pepper, sliced

Method

·         Cook the pasta in boiling water for 12-15 minutes

·         Meanwhile, fry the onions, mushrooms and sausage over a medium heat. I always use Frylight

·         Five minutes from the end of the pasta cooking, add the tenderstem broccoli and cook through

·         Add the red pepper to the sausage and vegetable mixture and carry on frying until the sausages have cooked through

·         Drain the pasta and broccoli, before adding the pan mixture and stirring well
