Great recipe!  Came out really nice. I too used andouille sausage. Will make again.

Family favorite! Super simple and easy and very delicious, even for the picky eaters. One tip, it cooks better if you cook the noodles halfway before putting it all together :)

ADD CAJUN SEASONING!! I repeat. ADD 1 TBSP OF CAJUN SEASONING😍

After I have had a long, stressful, all-out exhausting day of work, I want carbs and wine. And frankly, I don't want to cook. This, however, is one of those recipes that you don't have to think about and is ready in a half hour. And the flavor and texture blows frozen pizza out of the water. Yes, I may be going home to the least diet-friendly meal on earth, but this recipe involves chopping and light simmering, which means I'm in solid adulting territory.

Just make sure your half and half is at room temp-warm before adding it, and add some red pepper flakes in with the sun-dried tomatoes. You'll thank me later.

I have made many good pastas but this one was easy and was loved by everyone in the family. Great pasta and very delicious.

This was so good! I'm learning my way around the kitchen, my husband is quite a bit better than me. He had a second helping of this! It was quick, easy, and delicious. 

I used heavy cream instead of half-and-half. 
I used fettuccine instead of penne, as it was all I had on hand. I did not cook the pasta prior to adding it.
I had ground sausage instead of this sausage in the casing. I just formed it into little rounds and it worked fine. 

I'll definitely be making this again.

I have made this dish at least 10 times. It is my favorite as I have dehydrated my sun-dried tomatoes myself, and use venison sausage that I made as well. The leftovers are excellent too.
I'd give it 6 stars if i could. Thanks for posting this fabulous recipe!
