2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 lb hot or sweet Italian sausage, sliced 1/2 inch thick or crumbled
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes

Heat olive oil in a large pot or skillet over medium heat. Add sausage, onion, and red pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until onions and pepper are tender and sausage is cooked through, about 6 minutes. Add garlic and cook one minute more.
