San Francisco Pasta

Tonight I made a pasta dish that was a hit...

 Hope it's a success in your house too:

1 lb. Bow Tie Pasta

1 package Hot Turkey Sausage (this wasn't too spicy for my kids)

1 Large Zucchini- Diced

1 Med Onion- Diced

2 each - Small Red, Orange &  Yellow Sweet Peppers Diced

1 Can diced Tomatoes- garlic and basil flavored- including the juice

1 tsp. basil (a cube of frozen basil is what I used)

1 TBSP Olive Oil

1 tsp. garlic powder

1/4 tsp. Ground White Pepper

Salt & Pepper to taste

2 oz. marscapone cheese (it is like italian cream cheese)

Shredded Parmesan Cheese

Boil Water and cook pasta according to instructions.  In a pan set to medium-high- heat 1 tsp. of the olive oil, add the onions and cook until translucent.  Add the peppers and cook until tender.  Remove the casings of the sausage and add to the pan.  Once the sausage is cooked, add the zucchini, garlic powder, tomatoes, basil and salt and pepper to taste.  Cook until desired tenderness of the zucchini.  Add to the pasta and mix together - put the marscapone cheese in and mix around - this will thicken the sauce and it give a creamier texture.  Garnish with parmesan cheese and Enjoy!
