dressing ingredients:
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup lemon juice
1 Tbsp. chopped garlic
Salt and pepper (1/2 tsp. each)
other ingredients:
1 lb. Italian sausage
5 ½ oz. mixed baby greens or spinach leaves
1 lb. cooked pasta (penne or spaghetti)
Parmesan cheese for topping
directions:
Mix together dressing ingredients. Set aside. Brown sausages and then slice into coins ¼” thick. Cook pasta according to directions. Just before serving, pour dressing over hot pasta and toss in greens. Divide portions into pasta bowls or on a plate. Top with slices of sausage and grated parmesan cheese. Serve with Italian bread.
This is an easy recipe that looks so pretty that we use for company or when my husband and I want something different then I can just give the boys pasta and sausage on the side without the dressing or greens.
