Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Italian sausage
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Cook the sausage: In a large skillet, cook the Italian sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked.
  • Add vegetables: Add the diced onion, sliced bell peppers, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  • Transfer to casserole dish: Transfer the sausage and vegetable mixture into a greased casserole dish.
  • Top with cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

  • You can use turkey sausage for a leaner option.
  • For extra flavor, add Italian seasoning or a pinch of red pepper flakes for some heat.
  • This dish can be served on its own or with crusty bread or over pasta for a more filling meal.
