Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes; drain.
Step 2
Brown sausage, stirring to crumble, in a skillet over medium heat. Remove sausage using a slotted spoon, leaving drippings in the pan.

Cook another 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, thyme, basil, and oregano; cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
