Directions

Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃) F.

Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain the pasta, and set aside.

Remove casings from sausage.

Cook sausage, onion, and garlic in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until browned, stirring to crumble.

Add the tomato paste, salt, pepper, and tomatoes, and bring to a boil.

Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Combine cooked pasta, sausage mixture, and basil.

Place half of the pasta mixture in a 4-quart casserole coated with cooking spray.

Top with half of mozzarella and half of Parmesan.

Repeat layers.

Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until bubbly.
