Easy Italian Stew

I found this easy, yummy recipe on the Kraft website. It really was fast and it turned out really tasty- the Italian Dressing gave it a good flavor!

Easy Italian Stew
2 Tbsp. Zesty Italian Dressing

1 lb. bulk Italian sausage

2 cans (14-1/2 oz. each) fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth

1 pkg. (16 oz.) frozen stir-fry vegetables (white onions and sliced green, red and yellow peppers)

1 can (15 oz.) cannellini beans, drained, rinsed (I used kidney beans)

1 can (14-1/2 oz.) Italian-style diced tomatoes, undrained

1 cup elbow macaroni, uncooked

1 cup Shredded Low-Moisture Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese

HEAT dressing in large saucepan on medium heat. Add sausage; cook 8 to 10 min. or until done, stirring occasionally to break sausage into small pieces.

ADD broth, stir-fry vegetables, beans and tomatoes; bring to boil. Stir in macaroni; simmer on medium heat 8 to 10 min. or until macaroni is tender, stirring occasionally.

SERVE topped with cheese. Serve with RITZ Crackers.
