Cheap and wholesome pasta recipe

125 g pasta (I used conchiglie)
4 sausages (Sainsbury's butcher's choice pork and leek)
3 peppers cut into 1cm chunks(Morrison's assorted colours multipack 1.09)
1 onion cut into 1cm chunks
garlic finely chopped (optional)
500g passata (Sainsbury's creamed tomatoes 29p)
olive oil
grated parmesan

Cook pasta according to instructions on packet, drain and set aside. Cut sausages into small pieces and fry in olive oil until browned all over, remove from pan and set aside. Fry peppers, onion and garlic (if used) for 5 mins until soft. return sausages to pan add pasta and passata stir frequently till all heated through. Season with plenty of freshly milled black pepper. Serve with freshly grated parmesan for those who like it.

Any leftovers mat be eaten cold as pasta salad so no waste.

Bon appetit

If you put a small tin of Morrissons Cannellini Beans into the recipe you will end up with a great Winter time stew which has hints of an Italian equivalent of the French cassoulet. The beans are about 29 pence and are great with most bean based recipes. I prefer them to haricot beans.

If you want to try a more typical Cassoulet then have a look at the recipe I have posted titled "Yorkshire Cassoulet".

Damn I missed the serving

Escafeldia...I like the idea of adding beans that would mean the recipe would comfortably serve about four people. I think mushrooms would be a good addition too.

I'm not too sure about mushrooms Bunny but some Chorizo Sausage diced would add a bit of extra spice. Fry it in with the rest of the sausages and the paprika would blend in well with the pork and leek. With four pork and leek sausages I would think a diced piece of Chorizo about 2 or 3 inches long would do the trick.
