SAUSAGE & TOMATO CREAM SAUCE WITH POTATO NOODLES
Serves 4

1 Tbsp olive oil
1 lb. Italian sausage links
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1-28 oz. can diced tomatoes with juice
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 tsp kosher salt & black pepper
3 russet potatoes, peeled and ends cut flat
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 tsp chopped fresh parsley

1. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook until done, searing on all sides. Remove sausage and set aside. Add onion, garlic, Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes. Cook for about 5 minutes until onion is tender. Add tomatoes, cream, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and continue to simmer about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.

2. Meanwhile, spiralize the potatoes on the fettucine-size setting. Add to tomato cream sauce along with Parmesan cheese. Simmer with sliced sausage about 10 minutes or until potato strands are tender but still firm. Sprinkle with parsley to serve.
