    List of Ingredients


    • 12 ounces fettuccine
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 pound mild or hot Italian sausages, casings removed and broken into 1/2-in. chunks
    • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
    • 1/2 cup sliced onion
    • 1 pound zucchini, sliced
    • 2 medium tomatoes, cut into 1-in. chunks
    • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 2/3 cup freshly shredded parmesan cheese


    Instructions


    1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, return to pot, and set aside.

    2. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick frying pan, heat oil over high heat. Add sausage and cook, stirring often, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer sausage to a plate and set aside.
    3. In the same pan, cook garlic, onion, and zucchini until starting to brown, about 4 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, pepper, and reserved sausage and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
