Cheesy Pasta and Sausage image

I originally saw this recipe on Kevin&Amanda.com. I tweaked it slightly and it is fabulous! It reheats well too. You can use just about any shape pasta you like: penne, shells, armoniche, wagon wheels, farfelle, or my favorite, tri-colored campanelle. I used turkey sausage for this and it was fantastic.For those to an aversion to ANYTHING spicy, you could easily substitute petite diced tomatoes for the Rotel.

This recipe was a fail. The pasta was overcooked and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this dish again.

Yum! This was a delicious and easy dish to make. I used Italian sausage and added some chopped mushrooms and bell peppers to the sauce. It was a great way to use up leftover pasta and sausage. I'll definitely be making this again.
