These ingredients are common products and can be found at any grocery store.

Ingredients

• Spaghetti - Any brand of regular spaghetti will work. I prefer to use a step up form angel hair so it has more substance. But you should make this recipe with whatever noodles you like.

• Sugar - Any brand of fine grain sugar will work.

• Johnsonville Italian Sausage - The sausage is what will make or break your meal so pick it wisely. If you pick a hotter sausage your sauce will be hot. If you pick a sweeter sausage your sauce will be sweeter. You can also buy any brand of sausage. You may opt to go to the meat counter in the meat department at your local grocery store. If you go this route be sure to get 1 lb of the sausage of your choosing. I prefer to use the prepackaged mild or sweet Johnsonville Italian sausage. This way I know it will taste the same every time.

• Spaghetti sauce/tomato sauce - You can go one of two ways with this. Either buy the large 24 oz bottle of spaghetti sauce or you can purchase to cans of regular tomato sauce.

Next you will need to locate the following cooking utensils. All of these items should be familiar to even a beginner cook.

Cooking utensils

• Large pot - You will need this to cook your noodles in.

• Medium pan - This will be used to cook the sausage, later you will add the tomato sauce to it.

Tip: Don’t use a pan with a large diameter as this may cause your sauce to burn easier.

• Strainer - This will be used to strain the noodles.

• Plate

• Knife

• Fork

• Cutting Board - The cutting board is optional because you may choose to cut the skin from the sausage over the pan. But if you feel more comfortable cutting with a cutting board that’s fine too.
