A few months ago I made penne with sausage and peppers and it was delicious. The flavors were great and it was an easy weeknight meal. The only problem was that it baked in the oven so it took longer then I wanted it to. I wanted to try a stove top version that was ready in under 25 minutes. That's why this pasta dish is perfect for #WeekdaySupper.
I also added in some onions and fresh tomatoes to this recipe which really enhanced the flavor. The sauce was so creamy and delicious and the spicy andouille sausage worked well against the cream cheese in the sauce. I think I might like this version better then the baked version!
