Mozzarella and Roasted Garlic Sausage Spaghetti

We’re back to the Sam’s gourmet chicken sausages tonight.  I was in the mood for spaghetti since it’s cold, but I didn’t want to actually thaw out any beef, so sausage it was.  The results were quite tasty, though I think I’d prefer a different pasta than spaghetti because I had a hard time getting pasta in every bite because it kept slithering off the fork.  This makes 3 servings at 504 calories and 10.2 grams of fat.   So I offer it up for this week’s Presto Pasta Night, hosted by Kevin of Closet Cooking.

Ingredients:

• 1 jar/can your favorite spaghetti sauce
• 1 cup rough chopped mushrooms
• 1 pound mozzarella and roasted garlic sausages, diced
• 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 6 oz. dried whole wheat spaghetti

Directions:

1. Add the spaghetti sauce, mushrooms, sausage, basil, and garlic and mix well.
2. Simmer on low for at least thirty minutes.
3. Prepare your pasta water (salt and bring to a boil).
4. Add pasta and cook until al dente.
5. Drain pasta and plate up with sauce.
6. Serve with garlic bread.
