One-Pot Tomato Pasta with Fennel Sausage Meatballs
In this recipe the pasta is cooked directly in the sauce which not only makes it super easy, but it's also super tasty because the pasta soaks up so much flavor! I like to make little meatballs out of homemade fennel sausage and cook them into the sauce too, but feel free to use your favorite kind of loose sausage in place, or leave out completely for a vegetarian option.

- 1
Mix the sausage ingredients together and form into several small meatballs. Set aside for now.
- 2
Heat a little oil in a medium pot and sauté the onions and garlic until very soft.

Add the can of whole tomatoes to pot and break them up into smaller pieces with a wooden spoon or spatula.

Pour in 1 cup of water and toss in the red chili. Bring to a boil.
- 5
After it starts to boil, turn to low and mix in 1 tsp salt and the pasta.
- 6
Cover with lid and cook on low for the time stated on the pasta package. Give it a stir a couple times during the cooking so the pasta doesn't stick to the pot.

Right after you add the pasta to the sauce, prepare the meatballs: Heat about 1 Tablespoon oil in a frying pan and cook the meat balls on each side until lightly browned.
- 8
About 2 or 3 minutes before the pasta gets done cooking, carefully mix in the meatballs into the pasta and sauce.

When the pasta and meatballs are done cooking, dish out and top with a little parsley and grated chees.
