creamy sausage pasta (easy dinner recipe) 🍝🌿

Sharing 5 of my all time favorite pasta recipes! They are all family tested, delicious, and easy to make! This was one of my first recipes I ever created and posted, so some tweaks have been made to perfect it even more.

Ep # 1: Creamy Sausage Pasta 🍅🍝

- 8 ounces pasta, ziti or penne

- Olive oil

- 2 sausage links

- 1 medium white onion, diced

- 2 garlic cloves, minced

- Spice mix (recipe below👇🏼)

- 3 tablespoons tomato paste

- 1/2 cup heavy cream

- 1/3 cup pasta water

- Handful of parsley, chopped

- 2 handfuls parmesan cheese

- Knob of unsalted butter (optional)

- Salt to taste (if needed)

Spice Mix:

- 1 teaspoon salt

- 1/2 teaspoon sugar

- 1/2 teaspoon pepper flakes

- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

- 1/4 teaspoon chili powder

- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions:

1. Start by cooking the pasta in salted, boiling water. Combine all the seasonings to make the spice mix.

2. In a hot pan on medium high heat, add some oil. Cook the sausage until it gets crispy. Take out and set aside.

3. In the same pan, add onion and garlic. Cook until fragrant. Add tomato paste and spice mix. Cook until the tomato paste turns a dark red color, about 5 minutes.

4. Turn heat to low, add the heavy cream. Stir until combined. Simmer on low until slightly thickened.

5. Add cooked pasta to the sauce along with pasta water and sausage. Combine throughly.

6. Finish off with a knob of butter, parsley, parmesan cheese, and salt to taste (if needed). Serve immediately and enjoy!

... Read moreCreamy sausage pasta is not just a meal; it's a hearty, comforting dish that brings family together. Pasta lovers will appreciate how easily it fits into busy schedules while delivering rich flavors everyone will enjoy. The fusion of sausage with creamy sauce offers a delightful taste. The secret lies in balancing the spices—feel free to experiment with additional seasonings like fresh basil or a hint of white wine for depth. To elevate the dish even more, serving it with a side of garlic bread or a fresh green salad can create a complete dining experience. Pair with a light white wine to enhance the flavors. Remember, the choice of pasta can also vary; try using farfalle or rigatoni for a lovely twist. Enjoy this luscious recipe that’s bound to become a family favorite!
