Ingredients and Preparation

Ingredients Measures
Dried sun-dried tomatoes, sliced (use scissors to cut into small strips) ¼ cup
Whole wheat penne (or other pasta) 4 ounces
Hot Italian turkey sausage, casings removed ½ pound
Olive oil 2 teaspoons
Garlic cloves, thinly sliced 2
Reduced sodium chicken stock ½ cup
Swiss chard (about ½ pound), washed and stems removed 1 bunch
Parmesan cheese, grated 2 tablespoons
  • Steam sun-dried tomatoes in a small amount of boiling water for 5 minutes, or until tender.
  • Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat. Cook pasta al dente according to package directions, omitting salt and oil.
  • Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook for 5 minutes, breaking it apart with a fork as it cooks, until evenly browned. Add garlic and cook another minute.
  • Add chicken broth to the skillet. Stir around, scraping any brown bits off the bottom of the pan. Add the Swiss chard, cover and cook for another 2 minutes, until Swiss chard is tender.
  • Reduce heat to low and add in sun-dried tomatoes and drained pasta. Stir to combine. Top with Parmesan cheese and serve.
