Before starting, wash and dry all produce Using a box grater, coarsely grate zucchini.Peel, then coarsely grate carrot.
Heat a large pot over medium-high heat (high heat for 4 ppl). When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then sausage. Break up sausage into smaller pieces, then add onions, carrots and zucchini.Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender and no pink remains in sausage, 4-5 min.**
Add tomato sauce base, Gravy Spice Blend and garlic salt. Stir to combine. While stirring, gradually add 3 1/2 cups (5 1/2 cups) water, roasted pepper pesto and stock powder. Bring to a boil over high.
Once boiling, stir in penne and reduce heat to medium.Simmer uncovered, stirring often to prevent sticking to the pot, until penne is tender, 14-16 min. (TIP: If penne sticks too much, add more water, 1/4 cup at a time. Scrape up any pieces stuck to the bottom of the pot.)
