1
Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add salt and cook fusilli pasta for 2 minutes less than the package instructions. Drain the pasta, toss with a small amount of olive oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.
2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the mild Italian sausages, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove sausages, slice into 1-inch pieces, and set aside.
3
In the same skillet, sauté the red, green, and yellow bell peppers, white onion, and minced garlic for about 5 minutes, or until softened.
4
Add the fresh diced tomatoes, dried oregano, salt, black ground pepper, and the sausage slices to the skillet. Simmer for 10 minutes.
5
Add the cooked fusilli pasta to the skillet, stirring gently to combine all the ingredients and evenly coat the pasta with the sauce. Simmer for an additional 2 minutes, or until pasta is al dente.
6
Serve hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
