I know it's difficult to think of making your own pasta sauce when you can get one easily out of a can - but believe me - this is worth it! It's not even difficult, and so impressive, fun, colorful and filling. You can even prepare the sauce in advance and rewarm it when you're ready to cook the pasta.

[email protected]Meh. I found this dish to be bland and uninspiring. The sausage was dry, and the peppers and onions were mushy. I won't be making this again.
