A Recipe I made up!

So this is not a cooking blog at all, but I made up a recipe the other night that I thought turned out so great and I wanted to share it!

I don't even know what it's called (it probably exists already), but I've been calling it an Italian Sausage Pasta Dinner.

Here's what I did:


Italian Sausage Pasta Dinner

Ingredients:
1 Package of Beer Bratwurst Sausages
1 Zucchini Squash (chopped into 1/4ths)
1 Green Pepper (chopped small)
1 Onion (diced)
Green Onions
Crushed Tomatoes (or 1 or 2 tomatoes chopped up)
White Wine
Olive Oil
Basil
Italian Spices (oregano, parsley, etc.)
Salt
Pepper
Light Italian Salad Dressing
Pasta (I happened to use Radiatore)

Directions:

Begin heating up water for the pasta.

Slice Bratwursts into bite sized pieces and begin to sauté

In a separate pan add onion, pepper, and green onions with some olive oil and begin to sauté.

Once onions and peppers are soft, add zucchini and spices (stir) and cover pan with a lid.

When the zucchini is almost done, add crushed tomatoes, white wine, and Italian dressing and stir until wine cooks off.

Serve over pasta.

It was really quick and easy, and I made it up as I went, but it was so good that I decided to write it down! Special thanks go to certain family members who are inspirations in the kitchen. ;-)
