ITALIAN SKILLET PASTA

This pasta is SO good and SO easy to prepare!

After a weekend of traveling,

we still want to prepare a good dinner

for Sunday night.

This was on the menu at Estelle's 

and 

it certainly made the darling a happy camper!

I told the Divine Miss M I would 

share how I made it....

so here you are!

ITALIAN SKILLET PASTA

1 lb. Sweet Italian Sausage

¼ cup green pepper, diced

1 jar Marinara sauce 

(Estelle’s uses Del Grosso Sunday Marinara)

½ lb. lasagna noodles

 1 (8 ounce) carton of Ricotta Cheese

1 lb. Mozzarella Cheese, shredded

½ cup Parmesan Cheese

2 t. Italian seasoning

¼ cup water

Brown the sweet Italian sausage in a medium sized skillet. Add the green pepper and continue to brown.

Pour 1/3 cup of a good Marinara sauce over browned sausage and peppers. Break about 3 lasagna noodles over this mixture. Spoon ½ of the ricotta cheese evenly in large spoonful’s over the noodles. Sprinkle ½ of the shredded Mozzarella over this. Then sprinkle ¼ cup Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning over all. Break the second round of 3 lasagna noodles, then repeat with sauce, cheeses and Italian seasonings. Pour the water around edges and evenly over the top. Cover and simmer for about 25-30 minutes until lasagna noodles are el dente.
