Saucy Sausage Pasta
A yummy and hearty sausage pasta dish with a creamy tomato sauce. This is a quick and easy weeknight dinner that the kids will LOVE. My lot like even more grated cheddar on top!

 The recipe can easily be doubled making it perfect for a larger gathering (i.e school friends round for tea). I've used penne pasta here but any shape would work, you could even turn it into a pasta base by popping it in the oven to brown with some breadcrumbs and parmesan on top.

TOP TIPS FOR MAKING THE SAUCY SAUSAGE PASTA

  • Add some veggies - courgettes and peppers would work well. Just fry them at the same time as the onions.
  • Double the recipe and freeze half of the sauce for another day.
  • If you like it hot, add a chopped fresh red chilli when you fry the onion in addition to the dried chilli powder.
