This is the same recipe as Kittencalskitchen that has RAVE reviews. Only difference I found was the kind of pasta used. Recipe #102506. I made it and it went together easily. The only change I made was in lieu of ground beef I added finely chopped cabbage to the sausage and onion (sneaking in more veggies for the family.)

Made as written. Was very good, DH loved it. I did add about 1-1 1/2 cups of beef stock. There didn't seem to be enough liquid. Served with garlic toast and a salad. When DH waked in he said the smell was amazing.. He started to pick right out of the pan, LOL. Thanks for the post.
