Tomato Sausage Pasta

This is one of the first recipes I made for my husband...that didn't make him gag:) Seriously...I was a terrible cook when we were first married. He told me a few months ago that everything has gotten better with me in time...I still don't know if that is a compliment or not...

So, I thought I would share the recipe that redeemed my cooking reputation:

1 (16oz) package of smoked sausage or kielbasa...I use turkey

1/2 c chopped white onion

2 cans petite diced tomatoes...I use the basil oregano blend

1 can (8oz) tomato sauce

3/4 c water

1 c pasta...I use anything whole grain

1. Brown sausage and onion over med-high heat

2. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, and water. Bring to a boil.

3. Stir in uncooked pasta. Cover and keep on low for 15 minutes (or until pasta is tender)

Serve!

I have to add water sometimes in the middle of cooking the pasta. I love this dish because everything is in one pot and I don't have to boil the pasta separately. Anything that is easy and makes me look good is awesome:)
