Cheesy Pasta and Sausage

People talking
I originally saw this recipe on Kevin&Amanda.com. I tweaked it slightly and it is fabulous! It reheats well too. You can use just about any shape pasta you like: penne, shells, armoniche, wagon wheels, farfelle, or my favorite, tri-colored campanelle. I used turkey sausage for this and it was fantastic.For those to an aversion to ANYTHING spicy, you could easily substitute petite diced tomatoes for the Rotel.

We really loved this dish. We used mild Italian sausage and pepper jack cheese, because that's what we had on hand, but otherwise made as instructed. As we were putting it together, we had our doubts about there being enough liquid to cook the pasta, but it turned out great! I've added to my recipe box, and we'll be making this again.

This was incredibly easy and tasty. My 8-yr-old ate his whole dinner (kind of a big deal!). I didn't have half-n-half, so I subbed in almond milk. A little thinner, but still great. Thanks so much for posting. :)

I can not describe how delicious this was! My husband said it is a keeper. <br/> I made it exactly as written and it was quick and easy.

This is simply delish! I used plain tomatoes, not rotel, because my husband and I do not like spicy food.
