Sausage Pepper Pasta
Ingredients
1 pound Italian sausage
4 cloves garlic minced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 jar roasted red peppers 16 ounces
4 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups spinach
12 ounces pasta
Directions
Put the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the sausage and garlic, and cook until the sausage is browned.
While the sausage cooks, drain the jar of peppers. Use a blender or food processor to puree the red peppers.
Add in the chicken broth, milk, puréed red pepper, pasta, salt and pepper and stir. If the pasta isn’t fully covered, add 1/4 cup of milk and 1/4 cup of chicken broth to the pan.
Bring to a boil, cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 12 minutes, or the amount specified on the pasta package directions.
Once the pasta has cooked, add the spinach and stir until it’s hot and wilted. Add cream cheese and Parmesan and stir to combine and melt everything.
