my husband and i were not crazy about this one. it is more of a bland dry pasta, and i guess we prefer something more creamy and with more flavor. also, 2 red bell peppers are almost too much compared to the meat it calls for. i would do more meat and 1 less pepper. or do 1lb meat, 1 red pepper & 1 green pepper. the red ones are so much more expensive than the green ones... i think i would try it again, but change it to bow-tie pasta and add the addtional meat and switch to both red and green peppers. and maybe melt some shredded parmesan cheese over the top to make it more cheesy/creamy. if you have a resturant called johnny carinos, this reminds us of their skillitini. they have black olives in theirs and that may give it some more flavor i think this original recipe is lacking. :)

This is really good. It was a HUGE hit with the hubby and 3 y.o. son. I really liked it, but I'm not a huge fan of peppers. Will probably make again.

I have made this twice and both times my family loved it. I used bow tie the second time and it still worked out great.

Very good. I used 3/4 lb of sausage instead of 1/2 lb and drained the fat, other than that I kept to the recipe and loved it. Very fast, very easy, very tasty. The wine added a nice taste and the sauce was slightly creamy dispite the absence of cream in the recipe. I almost forgot, I did add a ladle of pasta water to the sauce also. I will definately make again and make some of the variations suggusted also.

My husband and I both thought this was excellent! I took a few suggestions from other reviewers: I used whole-wheat penne pasta, 1 red and 1 green bell pepper, added mushrooms, dried basil and Italian seasoning. I used turkey sausage, which I sliced and heated without removing the casings or crumbling. I'll be making this again.

I really enjoyed this recipe. I added a touch of water to the sauce because I didn't think it would be enough without it, but other than that I kept the recipe exactly the same.

I made this recipe last night and I thought it was very tasty! Really quick and easy to make on a busy weeknight and pretty healthy to boot! My husband thought it was just OK, but I noticed he did have seconds, and my 13 year old son thought it was kinda spicy. I made few adjustments to the recipe. I didn’t have an onion so I used diced shallots instead, used whole wheat fettuccini, and an extra clove of garlic because we love garlic. I also added a liberal amount of coarsely ground black pepper, I think that’s what gave it the spicy that my son was referring to. Served with garlic bread. Next time I will not dice the red pepper, I will slice it into strips instead. Other than that I’m not going to change a thing. Since this recipe has so few ingredients I think it’s important to use only the highest quality ingredients to ensure the best flavor! Thanks for sharing this recipe I’ll be making this one fairly regularly!

This was delicous. I made exactly as directed but added 1/4 t each garlic powder & parsley, 1/8 t each basil, oregano, & red pepper flakes. I served this with bread from my bread maker. It was easy to make & very tasty. My husband had seconds. Thanks Jackie.

Wow! What a wonderfully easy & delicious meal! I followed the recipe pretty closely, except I used turkey sausage, 1 green pepper & a 2 oz jar of sliced pimientos. I also used freshly grated parmesan, which does make a difference in taste. The wine added a nice subtle flavor. I will definitely be making this again. Thanks for a great recipe!

I used 1lb of sweet italian sausage links. I friend on both sides and then cut into rings. I then added a very large green pepper and vidalia onion. Sauteed with a little garlic salt (did not have fresh), italian seasoning, basil, salt and pepper. Added some white wine (1/2c) simmered awhile and then added 1 can of italian style stewed tomatoes. Serve over Rigatoni. This is a staple in my house and there is never any left over's

This was a fantastic meal with a few minor adjustments. I look at recipes as guidelines...not the rules! Instead of 2 red peppers, I used 1 green and 1 red bell pepper and added approx. 2oz of chopped Pancetta for more of an Italian flare. I love GARLIC!! We used 4 garlic cloves. Instead of cooking wine, I substitued 1 cup of Pinot Grigio wine. Lastly, I used approx. 1/2 cup freshley shredded Parmesan and topped with fresh basil and additional parmesan cheese. I will definitely be making this again...SOON!!

This was a very easy recipe to make. I found this to be a very light tasting meal, not a very hearty one, good for a night when you want a light meal. Leftovers however were not as good so I would only recommend it as a one time meal.
