Pasta is huge in our house, so I like finding recipes that bring in other nutrients. This is a great dish for adding lots of protein to your routine, as well as great spice from the sausage and onions. I also suggest this meal for a romantic date night with your significant other. The smells filling your home are wonderful, add some candles and relax.

•    16 ounces farfalle pasta
•    1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
•    1 small yellow onion, chopped
•    1 package (12 ounce) Sweet Italian Sausage, cut into 1/2 " slices
•    1/2 cup Merlot or dry red wine
•    1 can (14.5 ounce) diced tomatoes
•    1 can (15 ounce) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
•    1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
•    sea salt
•    ground pepper
•    2/3 cup Shredded Parmesan Cheese

Cook the pasta and drain. At the same time, heat the oil over medium heat in a skillet adding the onion and sausage. Cook until the onions are soft and sausage is browned. Add the wine and tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat and add the beans, sage, salt and pepper, cover and cook until the beans are heated. Toss with the pasta and top with Parmesan.
