This Italian drunken noodle recipe has been a family favorite for a while. Great flavors and we end up making a double batch every time we make it.

There are so many things to love about this easy pasta dinner. It’s simple, made with inexpensive ingredients, beautiful, and tastes amazing. The Italian sausage gives this unmistakenly Italian flavor. Colorful bell peppers add a mild flavor and combine with the tomatoes nicely. Pasta isn’t the star of this recipe so the mild egg noodles are the perfect pasta choice. Wine adds a lot of flavor, as do the fresh parsley and basil. Topping with a bit of fresh Parmesan makes is tasty. This recipe is casual enough to be served as a weeknight dinner but could be presented on a platter and served at a dinner party. If you have leftovers, this is even better the next day.
