Garden Pasta

I've been craving pasta like nobody's business so I finally caved and tossed this together real quick from what was in the fridge and everyone loved it.

1 large onion
2 zucchinis 
1 bell pepper
4 cups of quartered Brussels sprouts
3 tbs minced garlic 
1 can diced tomatoes
1 pkg sliced mushrooms
1 jar Newman's Own Sockarooni
1 pkg. all natural organic casing free spinach garlic chicken sausage
variety of spices 
*optional* we had leftover feta jalapeno burgers I made the night before so I cubed up two of those
6 cups of Brown rice penne pasta

While pasta is cooking; in a large saucepan with olive oil saute onions, garlic and bell pepper for 10 minutes then add the rest of the vegetables and meats, cook another 10 minutes.  Add drained pasta and sauce to mixture, mix, cover and simmer for 5-10 minutes (make a nice salad in the meantime) 
Season how you like.  I used h.s. salt, pepper, crushed red peppers, garlic powder, parsley, basil and oregano.
