Servings: 8 • Size: 1/2 cup sauce, 1 cup cooked pasta • Calories: 324 • Points: 6.25 pts

* 1 lb lean Italian turkey sausage, casings removed
* 1 28 oz can crushed tomatoes (I love Tuttorosso)
* fresh or dried basil
* salt and pepper to taste
* 1/2 cup fat free ricotta
* 16 oz uncooked whole wheat, high fiber or low carb pasta

Remove the casings from the sausage and saute in a deep skillet. When browned and cooked through, add crushed tomatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer on low for about 10 minutes. Add basil and ricotta and simmer another 5 minutes. Serve 1/2 cup sauce over approx 1 cup (2 oz dry) of your favorite cooked whole wheat, low carb or high fiber pasta.
