A favorite recipe!

Today I am going to share with you a delicious recipe that is a favorite in our house! 


I first found this recipe on Pinterest but since then I have seen it all over the internet. It is A-MAZING! The website I often use for this recipe can be found here

Spicy Sausage Pasta

1 tbsp olive oil
1 lb smoked sausage
1.5 cups diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 (10 oz) can Ro-Tel tomatoes and green chiles, Mild
1/2 cup heavy cream
8 oz penne pasta (I use whole wheat penne) 
1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, each
1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
1/3 cup thinly sliced scallions

1. Add olive oil to an oven-safe skillet over medium high heat until just smoking. Add sausage and onions and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

2. Add broth, tomatoes, cream, pasta, salt and pepper and stir. Bring to a boil, cover skillet, and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until pasta is tender, about 15 minutes.

3. Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1/2 cup cheese. Top with remaining cheese and sprinkle with scallions. Broil until cheese is melted, spotty brown, and bubbly.

Makes 4 servings


My husband has asked for this dish at least once a month since I first made it and we both love how great it tastes every single time! It also makes great leftovers! 

Enjoy!! 

Next week I will be posting our FAVORITE soup recipe, Chicken Tortilla.
