Smart Spaghetti

Hey Everybody!

Today’s meal is a healthy version of spaghetti. It is one of my easiest meals that I make and it is also Shane’s favorite, so it’s a go to for us. We eat this at least once a week. 

Ingredients

½ Box of Ronzoni 100% Whole Grain Spaghetti Noodles

1 Jar of Kroger Parmesan & Romano Pasta Sauce

2 Italian Sausages (I like Mild)

Recipe

1. Heat up a frying pan on medium heat and another medium saucepan halfway filled with water on high.

2. While these are heating, decase your Italian sausages and make them into small patties.

3. When you are finished, put them into the frying pan, so they are all laying flat next to each other. 

4. The water should be boiling in the saucepan by now so add half of your package of noodles, by breaking them in half. Dash a small amount of salt into the water (to prevent sticky noodles).

5. Start the timer for 10 minutes. Stir your noodles occasionally throughout this time. 

6. Your sausages should be about ready to flip over, flip one over with a fork to make sure it has cooked to your liking, then flip the rest.

7. Once all of your sausages are cooked on both sides, I put mine into a small bowl and set it aside.

8. Drain your grease from the frying pan and bring the pan back to the heat lowering it to medium-low. 

9. Add your pasta sauce to the frying pan and stir occasionally.

10. Drain your noodles when the timer goes off.

11. Add your sausage back to the frying pan into the sauce.

12. Once your sauce has heated to your liking you are ready to eat.

I absolutely love that this recipe only has three ingredients. It makes it very easy to prepare and to shop for. We also almost always have all of the ingredients on hand. I like to buy in bulk so that we have a little bit of a storage just in case. I also buy multiple packages of Italian sausage at the same time. When I get home I decase all of them and put them in freezer bags with two in each one. I just thaw them in the fridge each day we have this for dinner. It makes this meal very convenient.
