Smoked Turkey Sausage w/ Italian Pasta Salad

Dinner tonight: Smoked Turkey Sausage w/ Italian Pasta Salad



Oh as they say the "The Dog Days of Summer" are here! Rolled out to get the paper about 6:30 this morning and it was 73 degrees and humid! Along with the heat this time of year comes the Cicadas. I had read this year for this part of Ohio we are going to be invaded! They were at full force and really loud this morning.  For my dinner I prepared a Turkey Sausage (On Bun) w/ Italian Pasta Salad.







I used my favorite Smoked Turkey Sausage Butterball Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage. The Butterball Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage has an incredible taste! I'll put this up against any of the rest. I've grilled it many times but this time I prepared it in a skillet. I just cooked it on medium heat about 12 minutes, turning it quite often. I served it on a Healthy Life Whole Grain Hot Dog Bun and topped with some French's Spicy Brown Mustard, a perfect topping for any Sausage or Frank.




For a side dish I kept it light by making an Italian Pasta Salad. A Light and tasty dish that included Ronzoni Garden Delight Tri Color Rotini Pasta, Black Olives, Kalamata Olives, Hormel Turkey Pepperoni, Anchovies, fresh Shredded Parmesan Cheese, Kraft Zesty Italian Fat Free Dressing, and McCormick Grinder Italian Seasoning. Boiled the Pasta according to the box and add all the ingredients and refrigerated. Too Good! For dessert later tonight a bowl of Breyer's Carb Smart Ice Cream topped with a bit of Smucker's Sugar Free Hot Fudge Topping.
