Italian Style Sausage and Peppers - can be made vegan

I have already posted Street Fair Sausage n Peppers, now we will add in Italian Style Sausage and Peppers.  It's healthier because it's made with Turkey sausage instead of traditional.  To make this you will need:
  • 1/4 cup Olive oil
  • 1 pound sweet Italian turkey sausage (or vegan sausage)
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced
  •  1 green bell pepper, seeded and sliced
  •  1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and sliced
  • 2 yellow onions, sliced in half moons
  • 1 teaspoon salt and pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
  • 4 clove of garlic, chopped
  •  1 small can of tomato paste
  • 1 cup Marsala wine
  • 1 (15-ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • up to 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 4 to 6 fresh Italian sandwich rolls or potato rolls
  • 1.)  In a heavy skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil.  Add the sausage and brown the sausage on all sides.  Once browned, remove from pan.
    2.)  Add the add the peppers, onions, salt, and pepper and cook until tender.  Add the oregano, garlic and basil.  Cook for a minute or two.
    3.)  Add the tomato paste, the Marsala wine, the diced tomatoes.  Add the red pepper flakes to your own taste buds.  Less if you don't like a kick, more if you like it spicy.
    4.)  Add back the sausage, bring to a boil.  Reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes to finish cooking the sausage.  Serve in the rolls.
