creamy sausage + pepper pasta.


i can't take credit for this recipe. our sweet friends kenny and chardonnay came over after our accident last summer and made dinner for us. they came up with this amazing dish and i wanted to share it with all of you! 


ingredients
1 bushel fresh broccoli 
3 sweet bell peppers
1 package of turkey sausage
2 containers of cooking cream cheese (italian cheese and herb)
1 box pasta
salt, pepper, garlic powder

directions
boil the pasta (and towards the end, add the broccoli to the boiling water to cook). sauté the turkey sausage and season with salt, pepper and garlic powder. after it starts to brown, add the chopped peppers. after sausage is cooked through, slice into pieces. once pasta and broccoli is done cooking, add it to the pan with the sausage and peppers. slowly fold in the cooking cream cheese. (you might not use all of both the containers, but you will definitely need more than one). it's just that simple! you can top with grated cheese if desired! mmm...
it has great flavor! quick, easy and delicious!
enjoy!
