Juicy Finnebrogue Naked Pork Sausages bring bold, savoury flavour, paired with silky roasted red peppers, pasta, a generous grating of parmesan and plenty of fresh basil. It’s rich, vibrant, and ready in 25 minutes. Minimal effort, maximum comfort. This recipe combines two of our favourite hacks, using a pack of sausages for a pasta sauce base, combined with jarred roasted peppers. Ideal for busy weeknights and the sauce can be batch-cooked then frozen to make meal planning even easier. Finnebrogue’s sausages are gluten free - to keep this gluten free simply swap the pasta for gluten free too. Bonus: the sauce freezes beautifully, so you can batch-cook it now and thank yourself later. Use your preferred pasta shape according to what you like.
