This is my favorite! Love this recipe I have to stop myself from eating it. Favorite recipe I ever found pinterest ?

Made today and I only had macaroni.  My family has texture issues so I blended the tomatoes.  It’s the best meal I’ve made in a long time!!

I found this on pinterest a few years ago and it easily became a favorite meal in our family. Its quick to make I love it is a one pot wonder. I always have to make a double batch bc it is that popular and just that good. Its what's for dinner tonight and I always suggest it when people say they are in a rut and need something new. Thanks for sharing this.

Honestly, I make this pasta every 3 weeks. It is the best thing ever. All I can say is: THANK YOU FOR THIS!

This is my second recipe review EVER and I am 56yrs. old. This was a VERY tasty quick, one pot meal that I made today. I followed this recipe exactly as written and it turned out mighty tasty for sure. My only problem with the whole thing was that it wasn't spicy enough for me. However, this  is SO versatile and excellent as a base recipe . After my first bowl I sprinkled some Tony Chachere's Original Creole seasoning on my second bowl and it was even better. Of course I will be making this again but I will add peas, broccoli or green peppers to it for a veggie flair as well as my Tony C . for an added kick. My friend suggested adding shrimp to the combo for a little Cajun twist which sounds great. Overall I gave this 4 stars because it truly is good as is and it is a great starting point for anything you might want to add in.

I’ve made this many many times with sausage (always a family favorite)! I’m looking to use chicken this time around. Any thoughts on how to prepare?

Cheesy Sausage Pasta (one pot)

Italian sausage links

onion (finely diced)

milk

chicken broth (or water)

penne

cornstarch

garlic powder, sugar, paprika, and pepper

cheddar cheese (shredded)

gruyere cheese (shredded)

parmesan cheese (shredded)

salt & pepper

In a large pot over medium heat, brown Italian sausage and onion.

Add milk, broth, and pasta to the pot along with the sausage and onion. Stir in the cornstarch and seasonings and bring to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cover, and cook for 10-16 minutes or until the pasta is tender. Check the pan frequently and add more water or broth as needed.

Once the pasta is tender, remove the pot from the heat. Remove sausage from the pot and slice.

Stir the cheese into the pasta until melted. Stir in the sliced sausage and serve.

An easy dinner made with only a few ingredients, this Sausage and Peppers Pasta is filled with tons of flavor from Italian sausage, fresh bell peppers, and tomatoes.

Sausage and Peppers Pasta

lb penne pasta (or other short cut pasta)

extra virgin olive oil

sausage

bell peppers (I like colored), seeded and diced

onion, diced

(28 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained

(8 oz) tomato sauce

Italian seasoning

salt

black pepper

red pepper flakes

Parmesan cheese, for topping

Bring a large pot of water to boil. Salt generously, then add the pasta. Cook until al dente. Drain and return to the pot.

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and fry until browned on all sides and cooked through. Remove from the pan to a cutting board. Let the sausages cool slightly, then cut them into 3/4” to 1” pieces. Set aside.

In the same skillet, add the bell peppers and onion. Cook until softened, about 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook an additional 30 seconds.

Add the diced tomatoes and tomato sauce, the sliced sausage, the Italian seasoning, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Stir it all together and simmer on low for about 15 minutes.

Pour the sausage mixture over the cooked and drained pasta and stir to combine.

Serve topped with freshly grated parmesan cheese.
