Description

Comfort food made healthy. Recipe and photo by Jackie Alpers.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Dry Whole Grain Rotini Pasta
  • 2 whole Italian Sausage Links Cut Into 1/2" Rounds
  • ½  Small Onion, Sliced Thin
  • ½ cups Red Wine
  • 1 teaspoon Olive Oil
  • ½ teaspoons Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
  • 2 Tablespoons Pitted And Chopped Greek Or Italian Olives
  • ⅓ cups Nonfat Greek Yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon Light Butter
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • 1 whole Splash Of Nonfat Or Low Fat Milk
  • 2 Tablespoons Grated Parmesan/romano Cheese

Preparation

Cook the noodles according to the package instructions. While they are boiling, simmer the sausages and onions in the wine in a skillet over medium-high heat.

When the sausages have absorbed most of the wine add a little oil into the pan, add the crushed red pepper flakes and olives and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook until the sausages are nicely browned, about 2-3 minutes longer. Then remove the pan from the heat.

When they are done, drain the noodles, retaining about 1/4 cup of the pasta water. Return the noodles to their original saucepan which should still be pretty hot. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until the cheese melts.

Divide the noodle mixture onto 2 plates and top with the sausage mixture. The white noodles should look pretty with the purple sausages on top. Feel free to garnish with more Parmesan/Romano cheese, pepper and crushed red pepper. Enjoy!

Low carb variation: Skip the noodles entirely. Once the sausages are cooked, remove them from the heat and add 2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt, the milk and cheese, stir to combine. Enjoy!
