Ingredients:

  • 1 (14-oz) package turkey smoked sausage, cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • 8- ounces pasta
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 Tbsp Cajun seasoning
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:

  1. Prepare pasta according to package directions; drain and set aside.
  2. Saute sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, turning occasionally.
  3. Add cream and Cajun seasoning; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer gently for 3-4 minutes or until mixture begins to thicken.
  4. Remove from heat, stir in Parmesan cheese. Add pasta to sauce and toss.

Notes:

  • To cut down on the calories, I used turkey smoked sausage. It tasted great and we couldn’t tell any difference from the regular smoked sausage.
  • If you are worried about this being spicy, you can certainly reduce the amount of cajun seasoning.
  • You can use any shape of pasta that you prefer.
