One-Skillet Pasta

I made this recipe for "One-Skillet Pasta" from Taste of Home. It wasn't bad, and I might make it again with some changes. First off, I used 1 lb ground beef because that's what I had on hand- and it was plenty enough meat- I would definitely not use the called for amount of 1 1/2 lbs. I left out the sweet red pepper because I didn't have one. I left out the cheese due to preference and I added some garlic. The concept of this was really good. Next time I would like to try making this with 1 lb italian sausage. I would use the red bell pepper, and I would also add more garlic next time. This might also be good with a splash of wine. I also would like to try fresh mushrooms instead of canned. I would use more brown sugar than called for. This is an easy one-pot recipe and is very easy to personalize to your own tastes. Also wanted to note that after adding the angel hair pasta it was cooked through in about 15 mins, not 30-35 as called for in the recipe.
