Simple Italian Sausage Pasta Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 lb Italian sausage (not in the casing)
1 small red bell pepper, diced
1/2 small red onion, diced
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can stewed tomatoes (diced with juice)
1 -2 tablespoon flour (if desired, used it for thickening)
2 -3 green onions, diced

Preparation

In a medum-sized sauce pan, brown sausage, bell pepper and onion. Make sure vegies are tender.
Drain off grease.
Add stewed tomatoes, green onion 1-2 Tbsp of flour (for thickening--I added this to the tomatoes in separate medium-sized bowl and mixed it vigorously with a whisk. Then I added it, along with the green onion to the pan. If you like a thin sauce, don't do this step).
Bring to a boil over HIGH heat, stirring constantly.
Reduce to low-med, simmer covered for 15 min and uncovered for 15 min, stirring occasionally.
Serve over pasta or rice with a nice salad on the side with garlic bread.
