It’s my weekend and my family is asleep. Just finished making this rigatoni with hot Italian sausage, olives and cherry peppers with a creamy tomato sauce. Voodoo Ranger to wash it down 👌🏻

    Rough recipe:

    -Removed 16oz hot Italian sausages from case browned off and broke up into bite sized pieces

    -added in 1/2 of a large yellow onion (medium dice)

    -added in 2 medium diced Roma tomatoes

    -add in chopped basil

    -salt, black pepper, crushed red pepper to taste

    -finely diced about 6 cloves of garlic and stir in for 1 minute

    -add in chopped Kalamata olives and pickled cherry peppers (amount to preference)

    -pour in one large can of tomato sauce and simmer while rigatoni cooks

    -I had about 3/4 cup of half and half that I added along with a couple splashes of pasta water two minutes before the pasta was ready to be drained

    -drain pasta

    -combine pasta and sauce in pot and stir over medium low for 1-2 minutes until desired consistency

    -serve and top with grated parmesan
