Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 4 turkey sausages
- 2 garlic cloves diced
- 14 oz can crushed tomatoes
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp cajun seasoning
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 2.5 cups chicken broth
- 2 oz light cream cheese
- 3 cups penne pasta measured uncooked, about 300g
- 1/4 cup grated or shredded parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Cook the sausages first in a pan over medium heat on the stove with a little cooking spray. Once cooked, slice them up. Slices should be about ¼ - ½ inch thick.
- Heat a large pot over medium heat on the stove, add a little cooking spray, the sliced sausages, and the diced garlic, and let it cook for a few minutes.
- Add the 14oz can of crushed tomatoes. Then stir in the chicken broth, followed by all seasonings. Bring to a slight boil then reduce heat to a medium-low simmer and add the pasta. Partially cover with a lid and cook until the pasta is cooked (usually about 10 minutes). The sauce should thicken as the pasta is cooking.
- Once the pasta is cooked, stir in the cream cheese until it melts and blends in, then stir in the parmesan cheese.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
