How To Make Sausage Pasta in One Pan
The only tools you’ll need to make this recipe are a knife to chop onions and one single skillet (along with a spoon)! You can use this Woll skillet to brown the meat, boil the pasta and broil the cheese without making a pile of dishes to wash!
- Brown and drain sausage and onions.
- Stir in sauce, dry uncooked pasta and seasonings.
- Cover and simmer (no need to drain or precook pasta).
- Top with cheese and broil right in the pan to melt cheese!
This easy sausage pasta has so much flavor! You can use mild or spicy sausage and add in any veggies your family loves!
I love being able to make this Italian sausage pasta from start to finish in one pot. From the stove top to the oven and less than 30 minutes, this is our kind of cooking!
Woll Cookware is made in Germany and the diamond-reinforced nonstick coating is so amazing that everything (I mean everything including baked on cheese) slides right out of it! It is cast aluminum, oven safe up to 500°F (meaning you can bake casseroles or broil cheese right in the pan)! And best of all dishwasher safe! Find Woll Cookware near you here.
One pot meals also make cleaning up fast, and with this Woll skillet all you have to do is wash it briefly with hot water and a little soap and you’re done, or simply put it in the dishwasher.
I know your family is going to love this sausage pasta as much as mine does, it’s easy, cheesy and delicious!

Super easy and delicious! Most of the ingredients are ones you probably have so it makes for a good meal when in a pinch! I also find it very flexible to add extra veg or different meat or a white cheese if this is what you have on hand. I did use extra pasta and just added an extra can of diced tomatoes, extra seasoning, and some extra water.

Hi! Are these macro counts for just one serving? If not, what is the serving size? Thank you 🙂
CentsLess Meals C says
The nutrition information is for one serving. The recipe makes 6 servings, so one serving is one sixth of the finished recipe. Enjoy Lauren!
Alyson says
It is hard to find 8 oz box of penne pasta most is 13.25 or 16 oz and push everything up a quater? Or, do double of everything?
Centsless Meals SN says
You could double the recipe Alyson or use half the box of pasta for fewer leftovers if you want 🙂
