Rigatoni with mushrooms, peas and "sausage"

This was a very easy weeknight pasta dinner without a sauce. The sausage patties are already loaded with flavor, so this doesn't require much extra seasoning.


Ingredients


3/4 box of rigatoni, cooked and drained
1 carton of button mushrooms, sliced
1 cup frozen peas
4 morningstar farms "sausage" patties, cut into bite size pieces
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions


Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large pan and add the sliced mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms begin to change color and shrink. Add the frozen peas and cook for 1 minute. Add the "sausage" patties and cook for another 3 minutes. Add the rigatoni, remaining tbsp of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir to thoroughly to mix the ingredients together over medium heat for another 3-5 minutes.
