Sausage And Zucchini Fettucine
- 1 packet Mild Italian Sausages, casings removed, crumbled (about 5 dinner sized links)
- 1/2 Medium Spanish Onion, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 Tin ( 28oz) of Crushed, Diced or Stewed Tomatoes
- 2 Small Zucchini, green or yellow will work
- 1 Package of Fresh Fettucine, or 1/2 package of Dried Fettucine
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
- Canola Oil, as needed
- Honey or Sugar, as needed
- Heat a large frying pan to medium high and add the crumbled sausage. You may need to break this up further with a wooden spoon. Brown the sausage for about 5 minutes.
- If the sausage hasn't released many drippings, add about a tablespoon of oil. Then add onions and garlic and saute for 3-5 minutes.
- Add the tin of tomatoes. If you're using diced or stewed, break the pieces up with the back of wooden spoon. Stir well and let simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add sliced zucchini and cook for an additional 8-10 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. If you find the sauce too acidic add a big squeeze of honey, or a tablespoon or two of sugar. Sounds weird, but trust me, it works. Cook your pasta at this time too.
- When your pasta is done, mix the whole mess together so that the pasta can absorb a bit of the sauce. Then serve with some parmesan cheese on top if you like.
