Ingredients

  • 8 oz dry Banza Penne , or your choice of pasta
  • 1 C 244g Light Alfredo Sauce
  • 1/2 C 120g Marinara
  • 2 tsp Cajun Seasoning*
  • 1/2 C 56g Shredded Cheddar
  • 1 Zucchini chopped
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper chopped
  • 4 Turkey Sausages sliced (I used Johnsonville Turkey and Cheddar)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Cook the pasta according to its packaging. 
  • Chop the zucchini and red bell pepper and slice the sausages before adding to a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the sausages develop a crisp exterior. (Over medium-high heat, this should take ~12 minutes.)
  • While the pasta and sausage/veggie mix cook, mix the alfredo, marinara, and cajun seasoning together. 
  • Add the sauce to the sausage and veggies after they've cooked, stirring well. 
  • Drain the pasta and add to the pan, stirring to fully coat the pasta in sauce.
  • If you have an oven safe skillet, top with cheese and bake for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Without an oven safe skillet, transfer the cajun sausage pasta to an 8x8 baking dish before topping with cheese. 
  • Top with fresh parsley or parsley flakes and enjoy!
