  1. Delicious! I used whole wheat penne and spicy chicken sausage. Also added crushed red pepper and a splash of balsamic vinegar as I do every time I make pasta. Husband loved the recipe - but what's not to love with pasta, cheese, and sausage?

I love to cook, to feed people and to experiment. Unfortunately I have a very limited audience, so most of my creations are reserved for me alone. My BF is a sort of picky eater and all of my favorites he dislikes, so I'm learning how to get around lots of ingredients. Like mushrooms (so sad), tomatoes and onions... who cooks without onions? In this one way, it's almost a good thing that our schedules allow for only 3 meals a weeks together :-)
