Sausage & Tomato Pasta



We just had some last night and it was super yummy. I even took a picture of what i made as proof. Here is the recipe:





1 lb. Penne pasta


1 1/2 c. broccoli florets


3 TBSP Olive Oil


4 links hot or sweet turkey sausage


1/2 tsp salt


1 can diced tomatoes



***We added a sprinkle of parmesean on top but you dont have to.***



--Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water according to your package directions. Add in the broccoli for the last three mins. of cooking. Drain in a colander


--In a nonstick skillet over medium heat warm 1 TBSP of olive oil. Add sausage and cook turning often 10-12 mins. Transfer sausage to cutting board and cut 1/2 in. thick pieces.


--Return to pasta and broccoli to cooking pot, add sausage, remaining olive oil, salt, tomato's and toss together and serve!!! Yummy!!!! Makes plenty for leftovers as well too.

Kroger savings

This reflects dbl coupons up to a $1 at my local krogers. A few quick terms that i use so you can understand them.

OYNO- is off your next order
dbl- double the coupon
WYB-When you buy
b1g1f- Buy One Get One Free
ovg-overage
IP- is Internet Printable
$1/2= a dollar off of two items and so on

If you want to know where the coupons are from just ask!

Im not at all impressed with their ad this week but here are a few items that i found. Also you can compare these sale prices to those in my GE (giant eagle) post or any other store that i post, this way you can see what is cheaper to begin with.

Land O Lakes Butter $1-.55c coupon(dbl)= free & ovg
Chex Mix $1-$1/2(dbl)=2/free***IP***
Lipton Noodle Sides $1-.60/2(dbl)=2/.80 cents
Clorox Bleach $1 ***there is a coupon out there for B2G1F. 3/$2
Ragu $1-.50/2(dbl)=2/$1

Krogers retail prices are generally lower so it doesnt hurt to just look around for things that arent in the ad!

Coupon glory!

Ever since my Sister In Law got me involved in couponing its been so great saving all that money. My hubby is relieved at the savings and enjoys going to the store with me. So in order for me to continue i feel like others should be able to take part in the savings as well. So i promise i will try to keep this more updated as I go. I will update with as much information as possible. If you need to know about a specific coupon or where to get it let me know and ill try to find it for you. I will be covering Meijer, Kroger, and Giant Eagle. My Giant Eagle and Krogers doubles up to a $1 so the end result with reflect that. If you want to know about a specific store of yours let me know and ill find out for you. Our Meijer's only doubles up to .50cents so the end price will reflect that as well. If you want to know anything let me know!!! Happy savings!
