The best type of Comfort Food, Sausage and Peppers Pasta will warm you inside and out! 

You know, sometimes you just need an amazing dinner that wraps you in comfort in each bite right? Yup, that’s what Sausage and Peppers Pasta really is. I took the sausage and peppers that you put on a roll and mixed it up with some sauce and peppers – it is the perfect pasta dish. My family has begged for this again and again and again. You’re going to be so happy to make it!!!!

Dinner doesn’t have to be hard to taste good. When I’m working, getting home, getting kids off of the bus – I just don’t want to make a four course dinner…But we still want something yummy am I right? I love a great pasta dish but there is only so many meatballs that we can eat! I needed something with a little different taste to keep it interesting. Sausage and Peppers Pasta has seriously quickly become a family favorite because it’s easy, yummy and I don’t have to spend til 7 pm making it every night!

I’m going to let you in on a few secrets…I healthed this up by using Turkey Sausage and I also used whole grain pasta – the results were amazing. This is a great use of Turkey Sausage! You can either buy it ground or buy the already made sausage links. If you buy the links, I took the sausage out of the casing before browning it. I like using it as a ground meat rather than sausage links. It was so good you guys! You’re going to love it.

You know at Who Needs a Cape we so really love a great one dish meal, casserole or easy dinner – here’s a few more ideas to keep you going through the week!
