Introduction
If you’ve got some leftover sausage and vegetables, you can use them to make a delicious meal! I’ve provided the ingredients and instructions below. This is a great recipe for those who want something quick and easy, but still flavorful. The sausage and vegetables are already cooked, so all that’s left is to heat up the angel hair pasta, which takes only a few minutes. But this recipe is starting from scratch! I’ve provided the ingredients and instructions below.
This is a great recipe for those who want something quick and easy, but still flavorful. The sausage, vegetables, and angel hair pasta are all cooked separately (and then mixed together), so it takes longer than with the previous recipe. But it’s still pretty quick to make.

Ingredients
- 1 lbs of Pork
- veggies (mushrooms, zucchini, spinach, onions)
- angel hair pasta
- pasta sauce
- eggs
Preparing the Sausage
To prepare the sausage, you have a few options. You can cook it in a pan over medium heat until browned and cooked through, or grill it on an outdoor grill for about 10 minutes per side. We’ve also found that slicing the sausage into chunks before cooking makes for an easier cleanup later on – but that’s just our preference! Once the sausage is cooked, drain off any excess fat and add it to your sauce-filled pan.
The next step is seasoning your sausage with herbs and spices (garlic powder works great here).
Finally, add salt to taste and serve hot off of the stovetop or grill!
Preparing the Vegetables
To prepare the vegetables, wash and chop the onion. Then, slice the zucchini crosswise into thin slices. Add them to a large pan with olive oil and cook over medium heat until tender.
In another bowl, combine minced garlic cloves with salt and pepper. Stir well then add this mixture to your pan of cooked vegetables along with fresh chopped basil leaves or parsley.
Preparing the Angel Hair Pasta
- Cook the pasta according to package directions.
- Drain the cooked pasta and rinse it with cold water. Set aside to drain while you prepare the other ingredients.
Preparing the pasta sauce
- Add the pasta sauce to a pot and bring it to a simmer.
- Add the vegetables, sausage and angel hair pasta then cover and cook for 10 minutes, or until pasta is fully cooked through and vegetables are soft enough to be cut with a spoon.
- Remove from heat and stir in parmesan cheese until melted through the dish
Instructions
- Prepare the sausage: Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat, and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. When hot, add the sausage to the pan and cook until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes total. Remove from heat, transfer to a plate and set aside in a warm place.
- Prepare pasta: Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat; add salt (1 teaspoon per gallon). Add pasta just before water returns to simmer; cook until al dente according to package instructions (typically 8–12 minutes for angel hair). Drain well and reserve 1 cup cooking liquid in case you need it later; return pasta back into pot with reserved liquid if needed.
- Melt butter over medium-low heat in same saucepan used earlier; whisk in flour until smooth paste forms (up to 2 minutes), then slowly whisk in milk until fully incorporated, about 1 minute more or less depending on your stovetop’s power level—if mixture is too thick at any point during this process just add more milk! Reduce heat as needed when bringing up temperature because it can take longer than expected for flour/butter mixture come together smoothly every time due to differences between stoves themselves as well as other factors like ambient temperature inside kitchen versus outside world where humidity plays big role here too…
- Once mixture is smooth, add in eggs one at a time while whisking constantly to ensure they are fully incorporated into the liquid. Continue to cook over medium heat while stirring constantly until thickened and no longer watery (about 3-5 minutes).
