@itsnormalfood: Creamy Italian Sausage & Zuchinni Pasta (recipe below) INGREDIENTS: - 4-5 large roma tomatoes - 1/2 lb hot italian sausage - 1/2 of a zuchinni, thinly sliced - 1/2 shallot, diced - 3 cloves garlic, diced - 1/2 cup whole milk (or heavy cream) - 1/3 cup grated parmesan - about a teaspoon each of salt and pepper - 2 cups dry mezzi rigatoni (or regular rigatoni if you can’t find mezzi) OPTIONAL: lemon wedge for finishing INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Season tomatoes on a sheet pan with olive oil, salt and pepper. Bake at 425 degrees F for 20-30 minutes. Take out of the oven and discard the tomato skins. 2. In a pan over medium heat, add in a drizzle of a neutral, high smoke point oil (like avocado or canola oil), and then add sausage to the pan and brown. 3. Remove browned meat and set aside, leave the grease in the pan. Add zuchinni slices and a pinch of salt into the pan and sauté for about 5 min. Remove zuchinni from pan and set aside. 4. If needed, drizzle in a bit more oil and add in shallot. Saute for 3-5 min. Add in garlic and saute another 30 seconds. 5. Add in the roasted tomatoes and the liquid from the roasting pan. Stir to combine. 6. Add in the cooked sausage and milk and reduce the milk by half. 7. Boil pasta per the instructions on the box. 8. Turn the heat off of the sauce. Add the cooked noodles directly to the sauce and stir to combine. Add in the parmesan a little at a time and stir until creamy. Add in pasta water if it’s too dry. 8. Squeeze a little lemon juice over the top to finish off and serve with even more parmesan! #easymeal #summermeals #summerpasta #summerdinner #easydinnerideas
