Storing PastaI store all my pastas in canning jars rather than the opened boxes. The pasta stays fresher, and the jars stack nicely, too, conserving pantry space. When I’m preparing my grocery list, I can see what I need at a glance. —Laurie S., Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

My hubby and son LOVE this, and its so easy to make! When I'm pressed for time, I substitute canned fire roasted tomatoes for the fresh and add a little extra garlic. Not quite as good as the fresh ones, but in a pinch it works wonderfully!

I loved this. It had just the right flavors. My boyfriend added a little marinara on his, but I didn't think it needed it.

This was very good. I too liked the oven roasted tomatoes in this. After eating it I thought how flexible a recipe this is. I think it would be great to try with all different kinds of sausage or even change or add different veggies. I used Spinach and Garlic sausage from Trader Joe's which was great. I would dice the sausage next time to get spread the sausage more evenly. And for us I would probably omit the red pepper flakes. Too spicy for us.

This was very tasty and a thumbs up from the kids. I think next time I would take the sausage out of the casings to crumble and cook it. Otherwise yum!

I have made this dish several times, and each time I am reminded of how delicious it really is! It shocks me that something that has no sauce (marinara or alfredo, etc) could be so flavorful. But it just is! I've made it each time with a pre-cooked turkey sausage link (sliced into coins) but I'm making it again this week and figured it try it as the recipe is written -- with the raw sausage in casings. I'm sure it will even add better flavor.

I really liked this recipe! My husband did too. The crushed red peppers give it just enough kick.
