Creamy Italian Sausage Sauce with Peas

Hi,

I was reminded that I used to make this sauce, but somehow it was forgotten. I'm always trying new recipes and sometimes the old favorites get forgotten. This sauce should definitely get back into the regular rotation. In the past we used to eat it with, yes pasta, but the last time I made it with spaghetti squash. If you've never had spaghetti squash it is a bit magical. I'll post the very easy cooking recipe. But, for now the Creamy Sausage Sauce with Peas.

2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
1 package Italian Sausage (I used hot)

Melt butter in a large pot or large frying pan set on medium. Remove the casings from the sausage and crumble into pot or pan.  Cook until sausages are just browned.

2 large onions chopped

Add onions and cook until soft.

2 cloves garlic minced
1 can diced tomatoes
8 ounce can tomato sauce
1/2 cup white wine
salt and pepper to taste

Add the ingredients above, increase heat to high and bring mixture to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

1/2 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup half and half

Add the peas and cream and heat through. Enjoy. Serve on pasta or spaghetti squash with parmesan cheese on the side.

Hugs,
