    How to make salsa verde pasta

    • The very first step is to cook penne pasta, until al dente. Use a deep large saucepan. Then, rinse and drain. Remove cooked pasta from the saucepan.
    • In the same (now empty) saucepan, crumble the pork sausage and cook pork sausage until completely cooked. You don't need to use any oil - sausage has enough of its own oil too cook in.
    • Next, add salsa verde and drained black beans (from the can) to the same saucepan. Bring to boil.
    • Add cooked pasta, Cheddar and Mozzarella cheeses. Mix everything carefully (not to break pasta), reduce heat to medium and cook just until pasta heats through and the cheese melts.

    Below are some step-by-step photos demonstrating main steps:
