Recipe
In a large skillet with a lid, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and onion; cook, turning the sausages to brown all sides, until the onions are just tender, about 8 minutes.
Add the garlic and bell peppers and cook another couple of minutes. Add the tomatoes, water, pasta, basil, mint, salt, and pepper (make sure the pasta is submerged). Raise the heat to high and cook until the liquid starts t o boil.
Turn the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the sausages feel firm and the pasta is tender, about 25 minutes. Cut the sausages into slices or leave whole for serving.
Makes 4 servings.
