Pasta and Sauce Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pappardelle pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sausage Mixture

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Vegetables

    Add the minced garlic, sliced mushrooms, and diced eggplant to the skillet. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 4

    Combine with Tomatoes

    Stir in the canned diced tomatoes, season with salt and black pepper, and let simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

  5. 5

    Combine with Pasta

    Add the cooked pappardelle pasta to the skillet and toss to combine, ensuring the pasta is well-coated with the sauce.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot, topped with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
