Bring the water and a pinch of the salt to a boil in a large pot. Add the pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until tender. Drain, reserving a splash of the water.
While the pasta water heats, warm the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook for 5 minutes, flipping once, until browned and cooked through. Done when browned and firm, 165°F.
Add the bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet. Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.
Stir in the garlic and italian seasoning for 1 minute. Add the cooked pasta and the reserved splash of pasta water to the skillet. Toss everything together to coat and season with the remaining salt.
