Sausage, Peppers & Penne in a light Parmesan Sauce
1
This meal is healthy-ish (yes there is butter in it), budget friendly, filling, and even carries some nutritional value...oh and even better- its easy! Great dish for a college student learning how to cook and a busy family living on a military budget.
