Chicken Sausage and Vegetable Pasta

Hello everyone, it is snowing outside today so a big bowl of Chicken Sausage and Vegetable Pasta is the perfect winter warmer. It has been absolutely freezing here and has snowed most of the day.

Ollie cat meowed at the door to get out but changed his mind instantly. A cold blast of snowy air sent him running from the door to straight under the bed!

I am a bit of a carboholic and have pasta most weeks. I recently made a very simple but tasty Spaghetti Pomodoro - I'll get that typed up and shared.

This recipe also works greater with a little cheddar cheese sprinkled on top and either baked or put under the grill. It also goes great served with the tear and share cheesy garlic bread I shared in my last post (Tear and Share Cheesy Garlic Bread).
