When the mood for comfort food strikes, make this creamy sausage mushroom pasta. Use any pasta you’d like. I recommend rotini, penne, rigatoni or bow ties. You want to choose a pasta that has some nooks and crannies (or tubes) so the sauce can nestle itself inside of those secret spots. As far as the sausage goes, I like to use mild Italian sausage. If you’re one who likes things spicy, use the spicy version instead.
Ingredients needed:
pasta Italian sausage salted butter fresh mushrooms shallots garlic salt and freshly ground black pepper heavy whipping cream fresh parsley

What do pasta recipes call for using pasta water?
The result is a pasta dish with a cream sauce that lightly coats the pasta and other ingredients. You won’t see pasta swimming in sauce in this recipe.
Garnish individual servings with a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley. You can also add a little grated Parmesan cheese, if you’d like. Enjoy!
