Skilled-Cooked Sweet Italian Ground Sausage Meat Spaghetti by Premio
Just take one sixteen-ounce package of spaghetti, one pound of Premio Sweet Italian Sausage Meat, half a chopped onion, half a chopped green pepper, two tablespoons of margarine, a 14.5-ounce can of diced tomatoes, a six-ounce can of tomato sauce, a half-teaspoon of Italian seasoning, a quarter-cup of grated parmesan and a quarter-cup of shredded mozzarella.
Boil a large pot of lightly salted water. Cook the spaghetti for about 12 minutes and drain. Then brown the sausage meat on your skillet over a medium-high heat until it is crumbly and brown. This should take about five to seven minutes. Discard the grease. Stir in your onion, bell pepper and margarine. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook for about five minutes.
Now stir in your tomatoes, tomato sauce and seasoning. Bring to a boil and stir in your Parmesan cheese. Pour your sausage meat sauce over your spaghetti and top with mozzarella.
