I love an easy one pot meal and this one delivers in ALL THE WAYS!! The Zuppa Toscana soup from The Olive Garden was my inspiration for this easy, skillet creation! The creaminess of the cheese mixed with the spice of the sausage and the comfort of the pasta is complete PERFECTION! Serve this up family style with a nice salad and your favorite bottle of Italian wine! Entertain with it or lean on it for those nights when you don’t have a lot of time to throw dinner together for the fam. Whenever you decide to whip this together, will be the right time! Enjoy!
