Chunky Spaghetti Recipes

Steps:

• Brown sausage in a large saucepan; drain. Add green peppers, onion and garlic; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano and basil; simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes. Serve over pasta.

Steps:

• Get a skillet deep enough to hold the contents and the liquid of the sauce. Remember that the veggies will cook down so you need not use a pot unless you are doubling the recipe
• Quarter your mushrooms.
• Use about ½ a green pepper. You may use more or less depending on your taste for green pepper.
• Chunk the onion. Kind of like strips then cut the strips in half. This gives the sauce a great flavor.

• Add your onion and sauté until they are almost clear.
• Add your green pepper and sauté until they are almost soft.
