Valerie's Penne Pasta with Cream Sauce

This is another of my sis's recipes and this one is really good for a quick week night meal. My son and daughter both love this and make it in their own kitchens. Surprise, Surprise. They actually cook!


1 package Italian Sausage (hot or mild)
1 small onion, chopped
1 small green pepper chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (28 oz.) can diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (or to taste)
2 cups penne pasta
1/3 cup cream
Parmesan cheese

Cook and drain pasta. Remove sausage from casing and slice. Cook in olive oil till browned. Add onion, green pepper and cook till tender. Add garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and seasoning. Let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Add cooked pasta, stir well and simmer for 5 minutes. Add cream, mix well. Simmer 5 minutes. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately with garlic bread and salad. Enjoy!
