Lazy lasagna toss

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
Here are all the flavors of lasagna - zesty sausage, tomato sauce, pasta
And a dollop of creamy ricotta - in a no bake, no layer, no fuss toss.
A sprinkle of chopped parsley adds a fresh note and crisp Caesar salad
Makes a great partner.
1 pounds Hot Italian sausages
3 cups Chunky vegetable spaghetti sauce
1 cup Ricotta cheese
¼ cup Freshly grated parmesan cheese
12 ounces Pasta shells or fusilli, cooked

Directions

Remove sausages from casing. In large skillet, heat 1 tsp vegetable oil over medium high heat. Cook sausage, stirring and breaking up with fork, for 5-6 minutes or until meat is no longer pink. Drain off fat. Stir in spaghetti sauce, cook for 3-4 minutes or until bubbling. Meanwhile, in small microwaveable bowl or saucepan, mix ricotta with parmesan. Microwave at high for 45 seconds, or cook over mediumheat for 3 minutes, or just until parmesan begins to melt.

Toss spaghetti sauce with hot pasta. Divide among bowls. Spoon ricotta mixture evenly over top. Makes 4 servings.
