Sausage Pasta
You know I always love simple weeknight dinners especially during the school year. Mama don’t have time to be spending all afternoon in the kitchen, lol!
But seriously, I’m all about big flavors with minimal prep work. This pasta is just that. Everyone loves it. Win! Hope you enjoy 🙂

How To Prepare Easy Weeknight Dinners
5 ingredients my friends. Nice!!
Fresh basil is key when making pasta. It really gives such a fresh flavor that makes all of the difference.
I used bowtie pasta for our recipe, but feel free to use any small pasta you’ve got.
Once your pasta is cooked, transfer to a medium/large dutch oven.
Add your cooked sausage.
Add your favorite pasta sauce. If you are near a Trader Joe’s, their Four Cheese pasta sauce is our favorite.
Add the cream next and give a good stir. Cook over medium-low heat until hot then serve 🙂
Easy Weeknight Dinners!
Stir in chopped fresh basil leaves too. Mmmm!
We like to serve this pasta with a nice loaf of homemade garlic bread and a salad. Enjoy!
