(from mel100204’s recipe box)
Source: eat at home cooks.com
Ingredients
- linguine or other type pasta (penne would be good)
- half & half (about 2 cups)
- parmesan cheese (about 1 cup)
- mozzerella cheese (about 1 cup)
- small onion, diced
- 3-4 cloves garlic, minced
- butter for making the sauce (2-3 Tbs)
- roasted red peppers (I used about 1/2 jar)
- Italian sausage, browned
Directions
-
Cook the pasta according to the directions. Brown the sausage and drain the fat. In a saucepan, cook the onion and garlic in the butter until soft. Whisk in the half & half. Then stir in the cheeses and let them melt into the sauce over low heat. I didn’t really measure any of the sauce ingredients, but went by what I thought looked good. I also added salt and pepper.

When the pasta is cooked, drain it and put it back in the cooking pot. Add in the sausage, sauce and roasted red peppers. Serve it with garlic bread and salad.
