What You'll Need
- 1 pound Italian sausage, cut into 1/4-inch slices
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 celery stalk, diced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/3 cup natural rice vinegar

What to Do
- In a soup pot over medium-high heat, cook sausage, onion, celery, garlic, and pepper until sausage is browned. Add vinegar and cook until liquid is absorbed.

I made it for the second time. First time I made it as written. Second time I made small changes. I used dice Italian tomatoes, and I used 1 Tablespoon dried basil mixed in with the rest of the ingredients . I had some green bell pepper on hand so I chopped that up and used it. Both ways this is a very good recipe. Thank you Mr. Food.

I can not stand it when someone rates a recipe on the changes they made and it came out bad. The idea is to make it the way it is written so it will come out the way it is supposed to. This was a very good recipe as written. Will be making it again. Family loved it.

We loved it !!!! I've done this recipe twice so far, the the only thing I did different was instead of 1 LB of sausage, I used 2 LBS due to family size. I would recommend doubling the size of sausage if you have a big family. Excellent and tasty

Excellent very easy and tasty. We used authentic Italian sausage made by an Italian deli which really made the dish. I used 14 oz. canned chopped tomatoes with basil, spices instead of stewed (same flavor, chopped fine). Really loved this. Made in extra deep skillet.

Made it as written, except used balsamic vinegar as suggested. Wasn't impressed with it and probably won't make it again.

This really IS good. I added mushrooms but just because I can't imagine a meal without them. My pasta took a little longer than 12 minutes but no biggie. Just check for desired tenderness-mine about 20 min- and YUM! Side it with a slice of garlic bread (yes, a lot of extra carbs- but you can lessen the amount of noodles to make up for it) to soak up the nice jus. Would recommend. Thanks

Make it exactly as they say and you are in for a treat..I have a basil plant that I put a few chips on top when done..this is an easy wow! And just chop the sausage up out of the casing like hamburg. I think the rice vinegar makes it..I love this website!

I found it impossible to slice sausage into 1/4 inch slices - apparently, so did Howard. I've never used vinegar of any kind in this manner but I really like the results and will add it to my toolbox. Delicious results.

Rice vinegar is so good....not as sour and mildly sweet. Just buy a bottle for your kitchen, you will find many dishes to add it to. Especially salad dressings.

I'd just use any good vinegar such as a balsamic or a wine vinegar.
