I LIVE for one pan meals! And most of the time I don’t follow recipes, I just toss what I’ve got in a pan, play with different seasonings, and call it a day—this one you see here is a WINNER! I think I’ll call it ONE PAN CREAMY SAUSAGE PASTA that I made in under 30 minutes using no cream despite the name of this dish.
Ingredients
- 1 package True Story Foods Organic Chicken sausage
- 1 5oz can coconut cream (this is the thick white part, not the liquidy part)
- 16 oz marinara sauce of choice
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- ½ onion, finely diced
- 1 red pepper, finely diced
- 1 package pasta of choice (I used one box of Banza chickpea pasta)
- ⅓ cup finely chopped basil
- ½ cup parmesan cheese (optional, omit if dairy free!)
- 2 tbsp oil of choice (I used avocado oil)
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- salt, pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Dice the onion and red pepper and set aside.
- Slice sausage into coins about 1/2 inch thick.
- Place a large pan on the stove over medium heat—add the avocado oil.
- Once pan is hot, add the onion and bell pepper.
- After about five minutes, add crushed garlic, Italian seasoning, sausage, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Stir everything well, and after another few minutes, add the marinara sauce, three cups water and the pasta.
- Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low, and let cook for 15 minutes.
- Then remove the cover and mix in the coconut cream and basil.
- If using parmesan cheese, sprinkle as much as you want on top and plate your meal! That’s it!!! SOOOO GOOOOOD

I enjoyed the flavors here! I used ground sausage instead of the links or coins, because it was what I had on hand. Easy to make and my husband enjoyed every bite!
