Broken Lasagna with Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage

Dinner Tonight: Broken Lasagna with Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage and Baked Bread

What a beautiful day out there today! A bit windy but sunny out and not a cloud in the sky. Had some Simply Potatoes Hash Browns and a couple of Eckrich Smoked Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links for Breakfast. Add my morning Bigelow Decaf Green Tea and the Sunday Paper and I was set. Cleaned up around the house and did a load of laundry for Mom. All done inside and got the cart out and enjoyed this beautiful day. Got the rod and reel out and did a little fishing down at the community lake. Caught a few little ones, just nice to be outside! For dinner it was sort of odds and ends put together. I prepared  Broken Lasagna with Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage and Baked Bread.

To prepare tonight's dinner I'll need Ronzoni Healthy Harvest Whole Grain Lasagna, Black Olives, Kraft Reduced Fat Grated Parmesan Cheese, McCormick Grinder Italian Seasoning, Butterball Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage, and La Rosa's Sauce. Sort of played dinner by ear tonight. Started searching the pantry and came across an open box of Ronzoni Healthy Harvest Whole Grain Lasagna, and I sort put the dinner together from there.






I preheated the oven to 400 degrees and when ready baked the remaining loaf of the Multi-Grain Batard Bread. I always try to use Ronzoni Healthy Harvest Whole Grain Pastas but it's getting harder

and harder to find their products. Kroger and Walmart no longer carry the products, so Meijer is the only place here locally that I can find it. So anyway I grabbed the box of Lasagna and broke up a few of the Noodles into smaller pieces. To prepare it; I took a medium size sauce pan and filled half way with water and added 1/2 tablespoon of Sea Salt to it and brought it a boil. Added the Broken Lasagna Noodles and stirred. Cooked them uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes drained them and set aside.




As the Pasta was cooking I grabbed a small sauce pan and added the La Rosa's Sauce to it, letting it simmer on medium low heat. And as the Pasta and Sauce were cooking I cooked the Sausage on another burner. Used a medium size skillet and sprayed it with Pam Cooking Spray and 1 tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I'm using the Butterball Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage; that I sliced into bite size pieces. When the skillet was heated I added the Sausage, cooked them for about 10 minutes flipping the pieces over twice.




The Pasta, Sauce, and Sausage all got done at the same time. I took the drained Pasta and put them

into a large bowl. Seasoned with Sea Salt, Dried Parsley, and McCormick Grinder Italian Seasoning and tossed making sure it was mixed well. Then added a cup of the La Rosa's Sauce mixing well until all the Pasta was covered. Finally added the Smoked Turkey Sausage and stirred. To serve it I topped it with some Sliced Black Olives and Kraft Reduced Fat Grated Parmesan Cheese. Ne fine meal for just throwing some items together! I'll have to keep this Broken Lasagna Meal in mind to use again sometime. For dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding.
