Chilli Penne with Bacon and Sausage



I have been cooking lots of pasta dishes recently because my stove is on its way out (I only have the use of one plate and a very temperamental grill) at the moment and pasta is always quick and easy to do.  This recipe is really nice and I used Chilli Penne instead of normal Pasta so that made a nice change. 

Ingredients:

2 x Tablespoons Oil
1 x Packet Chipolata Sausages
½ x Packet Bacon, sliced
1 x Can tomatoes, Chopped
2 x Tablespoons Basil, dried
1 x Teaspoon Sugar
1 x Cup Grated Mozzarella Cheese
½ x Packet Chilli Penne
Salt and Pepper to taste

Method:

Heat the oil in a pan.
Add the sausages and cook until brown.
Add the bacon and cook for a further 2 minutes, stirring continuously.
Add the can of chopped tomatoes, teaspoon of sugar and basil.
Bring to the boil.
Reduce heat and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and pour over the already cooked pasta.
Add the Mozzarella Cheese (keep some aside) and mix well.
Transfer to a baking dish.
Sprinkle with remaining cheese and grill / bake until cheese has melted.
Serve with a side salad.

Please note:
If you can’t get Chilli Penne but like Chilli’s just add a teaspoon of crushed chilli’s to the mixture.
