Spicy Sausage Spaghetti

Spicy Sausage Spaghetti-4kowboys

1 lb. spicy sausage
1 carton whole grape tomatoes (about 1 cup to 1 1/2 cup whole)
4-5 green onions (with tops), chopped
1 small green pepper, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 cups crushed tomatoes (I used what I canned from last summer)
Lot's of fresh herbs, used the leaves from the sprigs and chopped( I used 5 big leaves of sage, 4 leaves of basil, 1 sprig of rosemarry , 3 sprigs of oregano, & bunch of thyme sprigs)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup heavy cream
Spaghetti noodles-aldente ( I used a little more than half a box)

Start your water boiling for your spaghetti noodles in a pot. Meanwhile, in a saute pan, cook and crumble sausage until no longer pink. Add onion and green pepper. Saute until softened. Add tomatoes and garlic. Cover and let cook until tomatoes begin to pop. (They really do pop, I heard them!). By this time your spaghetti noodles should be cooking in a seperate pot. After the grape tomatoes pop, add the rest of the tomatoes, salt and pepper and herbs. Let cook about 5 mintues to incooperate flavors. Add whipping cream, and stir to combine. Once noodles are drained, add them to the pan with the sauce. Leave the lid off, and let them soak in the sauce for about 5 minutes or so, stirring to combine. Serve with a nice crusty bread.
