Tips & Substitutions
For added depth of flavor, consider using Italian sausage instead of plain bulk sausage. You can also substitute the vegetables based on your preference or seasonality; zucchini and mushrooms work well. If you want a spicier kick, add some crushed red pepper flakes. This recipe can also be made with whole wheat spaghetti for a healthier option.
