Sausage and Pepper Rigatoni

Not an actual picture of the recipe, I didn't take one, but it basically looks like this haha.

I didn't have a recipe, I just worked with what I had.  It was tasty and easy, and definitely a good twist on just using plain ol' chuck.

Sausage and Pepper Rigatoni
Serves: 6-8
Calories: About 485 in 1/8


12 oz frozen onion and 3 pepper mix from Kroger
16 oz rigatoni
16 oz hot breakfast sausage roll
48 oz (2 jars) of pasta sauce, I used Classico's Italian Sausage flavor
8 slices of provolone cheese

Preheat oven to 375.

Bring a large pot of water to boil and cook pasta according to package.  Drain and return to the pot.

In a large skillet, break up and brown the sausage and the frozen onions and peppers (takes about as long as the pasta to cook).  Drain, add to drained pasta pot.  Add both jars of sauce, stir all together.

Pour into 9x13 casserole dish.  Cover with slices of cheese.  Bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown.
