Italian Stir Fry

• 1 packages Italian sausages ( mild, hot or sweet) cooked & browned on both sides
• 1 small or medium green pepper sliced in thin strips & then cut strips in half
• 1 small red, yellow or white onion sliced into strips
• 1 1/2 tbsp garlic, finely minced or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tbsp dried Italian seasoning or 1 tbsp dried oregano
• 1 1/2 tsp dried parsley or bout 1 tbsp minced fresh parsley
• 1 can diced tomatoes (do not drain)
• 1/2 lb or whats needed of ur favorite pasta cooked & drained (i use spaghetti or rotini but used elbow mac this time)
• 1 1/2 cup to 2 cups of ur favorite pasta sauce or even marinara or pizza sauce

1. Fry ur sausages in oil in large skillet, take out when done, set aside & let rest 10 minutes
2. While ur sausages r resting saute or "stir fry" ur peppers & onions in same skillet till mostly done, add minced garlic & herbs, stir through, drain oil
3. Slice sausages diagonally about 1/4 inch thick, add peppers, onions & sliced sausages back to skillet
4. Add tomatoes & sauce to the skillet with the sausages, stir through & simmer on medium-low for bout 15 minutes or a little longer if u want thicker sauce
5. After it has cooked then taste the sauce...if it needs salt add a little.
6. If its to tangy or sour u can add a little white sugar or I use 1 tbsp of grape jelly to balance the flavor & the slight hint of grape gives it a nice flavor...almost like red wine!
7. Don't use any other flavor jelly, jam or preserves because u don't want chunks of fruit or seeds in ur sauce!
8. Spoon this over ur cooked pasta!
9. Also just to let u know if u don't have or don't use pasta this is also delicious over white or brown rice!
10. Yumminess!!
11. Hope u all love this dish as much as we do!

13. Just a little note so u know...
14. This usually feeds bout 3-5 people depending on how big of an appetite they may have... U can usually get more or less servings by adjusting the amount of pasta or rice u cook but if u have a big family or big eaters then I'd suggest doubling the recipe!
