In a large pot boil water, once its boiling add some salt(about a tablespoon) pour in the pasta and stir. Cook according to directions on box, drain. While pasta is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Once pan is hot add about a tablespoon of olive oil, add onion, and saute until onions are softened. Add italian sausage, stir, add tomatoes, stir well to combine. Add seasoning and simmer(low boil) for about 20 minutes. Pour pasta into a 9x9 casserole dish, pour sauce over noodles.
