Ingredients
1 lb Italian sausage, if in links remove casings (I recommend Johnsonville hot)
dash Worcestershire sauce
1 lb fettuccine
1 large onion, diced
1 medium green pepper, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 cans / 14.5 oz diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can / 4 oz sliced mushrooms, drained
2 tsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
2 cups / 8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 can / 10-3/4 oz condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
1/4 cup beef broth
fresh minced parsley
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°f.
- Cook fettuccine according to package directions to al dente.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the sausage, onions, and green pepper. Add a couple dashes of Worcestershire sauce. Cook until meat is no longer pink.
- Add in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
- Drain.
- Add back to the skillet and add the tomatoes, mushrooms, Italian seasoning, sugar, and crushed red pepper flakes.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes.
- Drain fettuccine and toss well with the meat mixture.
- Transfer half of the sausage mixture into a greased 13″ x 9″ baking dish.
- Sprinkle with 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup of the parmesan cheese.
- Top with remaining sausage mixture.
- In a small bowl, whisk together soup and broth, spread over the casserole.
- Sprinkle with remaining parmesan and mozzarella.
- Sprinkle with some fresh minced parsley.
- Cover and bake casserole at 350°f for 20 minutes, uncover and bake for 10 minutes longer, or until bubbly and cheese is melted and lightly brown.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before serving, enjoy!
Notes
- I always spray the piece of foil with non-stick spray before covering the casserole so the cheese layer doesn’t stick to it.
- Feel free to use fresh mushrooms instead of canned, just sauté with the sausage, onions, and green pepper.
