    This Pasta with Sausage and Arugula is very easy to prepare and makes a beautiful presentation. I prefer to use spicy Italian sausage for extra flavor.

    Ingredients

    • 1 Pound Italian sausage, casings removed (My family prefers the flavor of spicy Italian sausage)
    • 2-½ Cups heavy cream
    • 1 cup parmesan
    • 3 Generous handfuls fresh arugula
    • 1 Pound dried pasta, cooked to al dente
    • salt and pepper to taste

    Note

    I tried this Pasta with Sausage and Arugula for the first time at a tiny restaurant near our house.  The bold flavors of the spicy Italian sausage and arugula are all the seasonings you need for this dish.  I prefer a pasta called "Casarecce," but any pasta of your choosing will work.  I think you'll like this and hope you make Pasta with Sausage and Arugula a frequent star at your dinner table.

    Enjoy!

    Directions

    Step 1
    Brown the Italian sausage over medium-high heat.

    Reduce heat to medium, add the cream and parmesan.

    Simmer until sauce is thickened, stirring frequently.

    Stir in arugula.

    Once arugula is slightly wilted, add pasta. Toss to combine and serve immediately.
