  • Total 30 min
  • Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Italian sausage links, cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) Italian-style stewed tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 3/4 cups Progresso™ beef-flavored broth (from 32-oz carton)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup Italian-style tomato paste (from 6-oz can)
  • 2 medium carrots, cut into 1/2-inch slices (1 cup)
  • 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1 1/2 cups uncooked rigatoni pasta (4 1/2 oz)
  • 1 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise in half, then cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices (2 cups)
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (2 oz)

Steps

  • 1
    Spray 4-quart saucepan or Dutch oven with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Cook sausage in saucepan, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink; drain.
  • 2
    Stir in tomatoes, broth, water, tomato paste, carrots and onion. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook uncovered about 10 minutes or until carrots are tender.
  • 3
    Stir in pasta and zucchini. Cook uncovered 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender. Sprinkle each serving with 2 tablespoons cheese.

  • Turkey Italian sausage can be used in place of the regular sausage. Or for the pepperoni pizza lovers in your family, substitute sliced pepperoni; skip step 1 and stir the pepperoni into the tomato mixture in step 2.
  • Place the sausage in the freezer while you cut the vegetables. It will be much easier to slice when it's partially frozen.
