Penne and Italian Sausage - a one pan wonder

Comfort food ready in 30 minutes.  I got this from a milk calendar years ago.  I now make it with hot Italian turkey sausage so everyone eats it, you can make it with hot or mild pork Italian sausage or as friend Judy does.   Her  family does not like sausage so she makes it with spiced tomatoes.  How ever you make it it is fast easy and yummy!!  The best part is only one pan to clean.
