Meaty Broccoli
Posted Sun, 08/24/08
I prepared the following for dinner tonight, making typical adjustments as I went along:
Sausage & Broccoli Skillet
From Campbell's Kitchen
1-1/2 LBS sweet Italian pork sausages, casing removed
1 medium onion, chopped (about 1/2 C)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (10.75 oz.) Campbell's Condensed Cream of Broccoli Soup
1/2 C milk
1 bag (about 16 oz.) frozen broccoli cuts
1/2 C shredded Parmesan cheese
4-1/2 C corkscrew-shaped pasta, cooked & drained
Crushed red pepper
Cook the sausage in a six-quart saucepot over medium-high heat until the sausage is well browned, stirring frequently to break up meat. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion and garlic to the saucepot and cook until tender. Pour off fat. Stir the soup, milk, broccoli and 1/4 cup of the cheese into the saucepot. Heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for five minutes or until the broccoli is tender, stirring occasionally. Put the pasta in a large serving bowl. Pour the sausage mixture over the pasta. Toss to coat. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Serve with red pepper, if desired.
I used fresh broccoli instead of frozen, steaming it to crisp-tender. I also halved the pasta quantity because four cups is overload.
Overall, the recipe was easy to prepare and quite tasty. Another winner from Campbell's Kitchen.
