Sweet Italian Turkey Sausage w/ Italian Pasta Salad

Dinner Tonight: Sweet Italian Turkey Sausage w/ Italian Pasta Salad




Wow, a normal day around the house today! No one had a doctor's appointment or check-up, no
repairman, and a nice peaceful day. I needed a day like this today. After Breakfast and my morning workout I went to Kroger for a few items and got gas for the car. Gas prices around here have shot up to anywhere from $2.89 - $3.00 a gallon! Have to make every trip count at this rate. Back home just cleaned up a bit outside around the house. i didn't last long though as it got real humid out. For dinner tonight I prepared a Sweet Italian Turkey Sausage w/ Italian Pasta Salad.



I used a Jennie - O Sweet Italian Sausage. I had them in the freezer so I sat them in the fridge
overnight to thaw. To prepare it, using a medium size skillet sprayed with Pam Cooking Spray, I pan fried it. Cooked for a total of about 17 minutes, turning several times. When done you have one plump and juicy Sausage. As all Jennie – O Products it’s fresh and delicious. After it cooled a bit I sliced it into bite size slices and set aside in a bowl.




Then to go with the Sausage I had prepared some Italian Pasta Salad, made about noon today. A

Light and tasty dish that includes Ronzoni Garden Delight Tri Color Rotini Pasta, Black Olives, Green Olives, Kalamata Olives, Hormel Turkey Pepperoni, Anchovies, Kraft Reduced Fat Grated Parmesan Cheese, Kraft Zesty Italian Fat Free Dressing, McCormick Grinder Italian Seasoning, and topped with fresh Shaved Parmesan Cheese. Boiled the Pasta according to the box and added all the ingredients and tossed until well mixed. Then refrigerated until ready to use.

Added the Pasta Salad to a bowl and topped it with the sliced Turkey Sausage, and chowed down! The Pasta Salad and Sausage are a perfect combination. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl Frozen Greek Yogurt.
