Servings: persons

1 lb hot Italian sausage link (I prefer Premio's brand, or Cifelli's)
1 (16 ounce) box penne pasta
1 red bell pepper
1 yellow bell pepper
1 orange bell pepper
1 medium onion
2 (24 ounce) jars marinara sauce, the plainer the better
1 cup pre-shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
salt, to taste

1
Brown sausages over Medium Heat in lightly oiled large frying pan. Once sausages are browned, cut into discs and cook each side until cooked through.
2
Meanwhile, cut up the peppers and onion, julienne style. Add to cooked sausages in the pan.
3
Lightly salt this mixture, continue cooking over Medium heat until vegetables are softened.
4
Add marinara sauce, cover and cook for at least twenty minutes on Low. For best results, cook on low for a few hours, stirring occasionally (this incorporates all the flavors of the sausage and peppers into the sauce).
5
Meanwhile, cook penne pasta al dente. Drain, add to sauce mixture.
6
Add mozzarella and parmesan cheese, mix thoroughly and serve.
7
** This will be a very saucy mixture, I like that for dipping bread! If you prefer less sauce, use about 36 oz sauce, or pour out some sauce prior to adding the pasta in the final step -- it will be a delicious snack at some point! **.
