CHEESY BAKED PASTA WITH SAUSAGE AND RICOTTA
Like a cross between baked ziti and sausage lasagna, this mozzarella-topped pasta is rich with ricotta and crushed tomatoes - and cooks entirely in one pan, including the pasta. The Italian sausage adds meaty depth to the sauce, but vegetarians can leave it out or use their favorite plant-based sausage instead.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Heat oil in a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high. Crumble sausage into skillet, using a spoon to break it into small pieces. Cook until starting to brown, stirring occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in garlic, oregano, fennel seeds and red-pepper flakes (if using), and cook another 1 to 2 minutes.
- Stir in whole tomatoes and their juice, using a spoon to break them up. Add crushed tomatoes, bay leaves and 2 teaspoons salt, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Stir in pasta and 1 cup water and return to a simmer. Continue to simmer for 2 minutes, stirring frequently to make sure pasta doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat, pluck out the bay leaves, and fold in about a third of the mozzarella.
- Top pasta with remaining mozzarella and dollops of ricotta. Sprinkle with Parmesan, then transfer to oven. Bake until pasta is tender when poked with a fork, and cheese is bubbly and lightly golden, 18 to 22 minutes. (If you'd like a more deeply browned topping, run the pan under the broiler for 1 or 2 minutes.) Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Top with basil, plenty of black pepper, and more red-pepper flakes, if you like.
CHEESY CHICKEN SPAGHETTI WITH ITALIAN SAUSAGE
This is a delicious Twist on chicken spaghetti. The addition of Italian sausage and just that right zing to make it totally irresistible. I use chicken thighs in this recipe because it's what I like, but you can use chicken breast if you prefer. I just love the cheesy flavor and the fact that there are no cans used only fresh...

Steps:
- 1. Brown Italian sausage in one tablespoon of olive oil. Set aside. Season the chicken breast with one teaspoon of Italian seasoning and half a teaspoon of seasoning salt. In the same skillet add another tablespoon of olive oil and brown the chicken. Set the chicken aside reserving the remaining olive oil in the pan.
- 2. Boil the spaghetti according to package directions until it is just al dente. Set aside reserving the pasta water.
- 3. Add one tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and the zucchini pieces. Saute for 2 minutes. Add 1/3 cup of the pasta water and cover. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until zucchini is tender but not mushy. Remove the zucchini from the skillet and set aside. Discard any liquid remaining in the skillet.
- 4. And the remaining olive oil and butter to the skillet. Add worcestershire sauce. Saute the onions, bell peppers and mushrooms until they are soft. Sprinkle the flour over these vegetables and stir until the flour is combined. Saute for a minute or two to get rid of that raw flour taste.
- 5. Pour milk into the skillet with vegetables and stir until it starts to thicken. Add the remaining seasoning salt and Italian seasoning. If it becomes too thick use a little pasta water to thin the mixture to a sauce consistency. Add the tomatoes and parmesan cheese and stir to combine.
- 6. Drain the spaghetti. Add the meats, zucchini and the shredded cheese to the spaghetti and pour the sauce over the mixture. Stir together until all cheese is melted. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve hot with some garlic bread and a salad to make a completely comforting meal.
