Pork Sausage Penne Bolognese

Back at it with this Pork Sausage and Penne Bolognese recipe.  Should my first recipe post of 2017 seriously be a bowl of carbs? YES! Yes it should.

So rather than jumping in head first with “detox recipes” or “going vegan easy” or “burn those calories with this skinny salad” posts, I’m just trying to get my life in order with this back to school business and having to get back in the kitchen and cook dinner EVERY night, so here you have Pork Sausage Penne Bolognese.

How To Make Pork Sausage Bolognese

Talking about life hacks! This pork sausage bolognese is so easy to make if you don’t have any minced meat on hand.  For this recipe you simply remove the meat from the sausage. Next you make a simple bolognese sauce with garlic, finely chopped onion and a tin of tomatoes. Best of all you can sneak some carrots and chopped spring onions in there too.  Don’t forget the grated parmesan on the table when you are dishing up. 

Speedy Pasta Dinner – Pork Sausage Penne Bolognese

I loved this Pork Sausage Penne Bolognese, as a matter of fact, I am adding this to our weekly dinner repertoire because:

1. It’s a bowl of carbs.
2. It is super quick to put together.
3. I can bulk up for the non veggie eater’s lunchbox. That’s the husband in case you were wondering.
4. It is bloody delicious, rather filling and comforting. Yes.

You can basically use any type of sausage for this recipe. A spicy sausage is best, as this ensures an immediate kick of flavor without having to worry too much about adding spices and seasoning.
