Place the sausage in a wide pot and turn the heat to medium. Cook, stirring often for 12-15 minutes until cooked through and beginning to caramelized. Remove from the pot. Drain off all but 1 tablespoon fat from the pot.
Add the mushrooms to the pot and cook for 8-10 minutes until browned and crisp around the edges. Season with salt.
Add the shallots to the mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the zucchini and tomatoes and stir to combine. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the zucchini begins to soften. Add the beans and season with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper , and then add the sausage back into the pot.
Turn the heat to high. Once any liquid in the pot (from the tomatoes and zucchini ) begins to bubble, pour in the water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes until the liquid reduces. Taste and season to your preference. After 20 minutes , stir in the parsley and cook for 5 minutes more.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until just barely al dente. Remove ½ cup of the cooking water and then drain the pasta .
Add the pasta cooking water and angel hair pasta to the sauce and toss to combine. Cook in the sauce for 1 minute until coated. Turn off the heat.
Divide the cooked pasta between between shallow bowls. Serve with more fresh parsley if you like. Enjoy!
