Honestly, it can't get much easier than this but once you try this, you'll be amazed at how good it is. One package linguini. One jar Prego mushroom and green peppers spaghetti sauce. One package hot Italian sausage links. Follow the instructions to steam and then lightly brown the sausage links in a large skillet. While they're cooking, get the water boiling for the linguini. Once the sausage is done, take it out of the skillet and onto a cutting board. Cut into 1/2" to 3/4" slices. Get the linguini started cooking. Remove excess grease from skillet with paper towels. Leave some in there for flavor. Add Prego to the skillet, then add the sausages slices. Stir lightly. Cover and simmer for ten minutes while the linguini is cooking. Drain linguini well. No need to rinse. Add linguini to skillet (if the skillet is large enough) or get a large bowl and put sauce and pasta in it. Toss to cover pasta with sauce. Serve with fresh grated Parmesan cheese and warm Italian or French bread. Know you've died and gone to heaven. Enjoy! (BTW, this will feed a family of six, or in our case, just the two of us for three days straight and we don't get tired of it because it's incredible!)

It sounds good, except for the Prego. I'm not sure why, but jarred sauces always make me ill. I prefer to make my sauce from scratch.

Sorry to hear that. I just checked the label of ours and there's nothing artificial in it at all. No preservatives or anything. But sauce you make from scratch will be great. Enjoy.

We made the sausage spaghetti for Sunday dinner tonight. Mamma mia, it was some good spaghetti! I used to make it with ground beef, like my Mom did when I was a kid. I haven't made it in years.
