Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Cook pasta until al dente and drain. Set aside.

Step 2

While pasta is cooking, break apart Italian Sausage in a large skillet over medium heat. Add in onion and garlic. Stir. Once Sausage is completely browned, add in bell peppers. Cook another 2 minutes to soften slightly.

Step 3

Pour in marinara sauce, water and spices. Add in broccoli, if desired. Stir and simmer covered for about 10 minutes, OR until broccoli is cooked to your liking.

Step 4

Toss with cooked pasta and top with parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
