I love one-pan recipes like this cheesy sausage and pasta recipe. I have been very busy lately, and I am trying to make meals fast that we can easily reheat for a quick weeknight meal. I enjoy this recipe because I can throw this together using only ingredients I already have in my pantry. It is a no-fuss recipe that guarantees the best results. For a gluten-free version, simply use gluten-free pasta.
This dish is pretty amazing, and one of the easiest and quickest you can make any time! I sometimes modify this a little depending on my mood without any worries that it’ll later the taste. I usually add extra red pepper flakes to boost that kick. So, if you want another satisfying dish that will save dinner, especially during busy days, then this recipe is a must!
