We love smoked sausage, pasta and cheese – so throw in some bell peppers and onions for veggies and this super simple Cheesy Smoked Sausage Bowties were a hit with the family!
This is one of those easy meals that pleases the whole family! I love one skillet meals and this comes close to that – except for the pot you cook your bowties in its all done in one pan! It’s the little things like less clean up that makes meals taste even better!
Smoked sausage is under-rated! It is so versatile, easy to prepare, protein packed and super affordable – breakfast, lunch or supper. You might even call it a fancy hog dog and I’m good with that! We always have some in our fridge, they make great quick sandwiches to serve with mac and cheese or throw a fried egg on top and a great breakfast!
