Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 green bell pepper, cut into strips; 1 red bell pepper, cut into strips; 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into strips; 3 tablespoons olive oil; 2 garlic cloves, minced; 1 red onion; 1 cup mushroom, sliced; 1 lb Italian sausage (optional); 1 tablespoon basil; 1 tablespoon sugar; 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar; 1 lb penne pasta, cooked al dente

Servings: persons

1 green bell pepper, cut into strips
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into strips
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 red onion
1 cup mushroom, sliced
1 lb Italian sausage (optional)
1 tablespoon basil
1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 lb penne pasta, cooked al dente

1
(Optional) Brown the sausage well, crumbling with a fork. Remove from skillet and set aside. Remove excess grease.
2
In a large skillet, heat olive oil. Add onion and cook to desired tenderness. (I like to cook the heck out of the onions, but you really don't have to.)
3
Add mushrooms and garlic and cook 3-4 minutes.
4
Add peppers and cook to desired tenderness. (I only cook the peppers for a couple of minutes because I like them to stay a little bit firm.)
5
When the veggies are at your desired tenderness, add the red wine vinegar and sugar. If using sausage, add the meat back to the skillet.
6
If I am using fresh basil, I add it last. However, if I am using dried basil, I add it with the mushrooms.
7
Pour all contents over al dente penne pasta. I like to top with grated parmesan cheese.
