This recipe was easy, fast, and delicious. I substituted multi grain rotini for the egg noodles, and used sundried tomatoe flavored chicken sausage instead of italian sausage. I also added about 1/3 cup ff half and half, 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, and lots of freshly ground black pepper to the sausage and garlic for the last minute or 2. This gave more of a sauce to the pasta. The sausage definitely makes this dish!

This receipe was a big hit with my family!!! I used a different pasta and hot italian sausage .before serving I drizzled the whole dish with more olive oil and sprinkled red pepper flakes on top with the cheese. My child of course complained about the missing sauce but my husband and I thought it was wonderful. I would make this again!

Liked this one alot! Used Mozzarella Chicken Sausage and added a cup of chicken broth to the meat mixture at the end of cooking. Also used fresh spinach and a Tbls of basil- as others recommended. Served with Linguine. I would serve this for a BIG crowd. It is really easy to make and it can keep in a chaffing dish well. REALLY, REALLY good!

It was runny and could have been thickened in some way. My fiance complained of the absence of sauce, but I enjoyed it immensely. Needs something to absorb the extra oil...

good base recipe. I did add some italian spices, I also used fresh spinach instead of frozen and added some chopped red onion. I think next time I will add some chopped fresh tomato. It's a good quick week night supper.

We thought this was GREAT! I changed the recipe a bit - I used red pepper & asiago cheese chicken sausage, 1/2 cup chopped onion sauteed with the garlic - added 14oz can diced tomatos(no salt) w/basil and 1/2 cup chicken broth mixed with 1 TBS cornstarch - 10oz bag fresh spinach chopped and 12 oz of cooked bowties - Yummm! we will have this again.
