How do you make sausage and peppers pasta?
Cook short pasta like rigatoni or penne. Meanwhile brown sliced or crumbled Italian sausage, soften peppers and onions in the same pan, add garlic and either crushed tomatoes or a splash of pasta water. Toss the drained pasta in the pan with grated Pecorino or Parmigiano and finish with herbs.
