Colorful Sausage and Bell Peppers recipe

Serves 4.

1 pound sweet or hot Italian sausages, cut into bit-size pieces
1/2 cup water
1 green bell pepper, seeded and cut into bite-size pieces
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and cut into bite-size pieces
1 orange bell pepper, seeded and cut into bite-size pieces
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
Hot cooked rice

In a large skillet, bring the sausages and water to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the sausages are no longer pink. Remove the skillet from the heat. Drain off the water and sausage fat.

Add remaining ingredients except rice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 8 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender. Serve immediately over hot rice.
