I must admit that the name of this recipe is what made me stop and look. I was intrigued with it so I tried it. It was so easy to make and didn't take very long to put together so I will be keeping the ingredients in the pantry so I make this again on a busy night.
We agreed it needed some Parmesan cheese on top.
The recipe calls for Cajun seasoning and I thought I had some in the pantry but I don't think it survived the last purge of expiration dates. Never fear I found a recipe on Pinterest to make my own. That is what is in the little container so I will have more for later. The recipe for that is at the bottom.
While you are boiling water to cook the pasta, slice the smoked sausage in small pieces.
Add them to a bowl.
Sprinkle them with Cajun seasonings.
Toss them in the seasonings.
Heat a skillet or large pot and add the sausage to brown.
When they start to get some color on the cut sides they are ready for the next part.
Add the Alfredo sauce. Use whatever is your favorite jared sauce.
Stir it around and let it get warm.
The recipe calls for a teaspoon of hot sauce. Since this was the first time I have made this I did not go heavy on the hot sauce. Just add to your taste preferences.
Cook pasta per the box directions. The recipe called for fusilli and I had rotini. I don't think it really matters just something that has a place for the sauce to get into the nooks and cranies.
After you have drained your pasta, add it to the sauce mixture.
Mix well.
Add some parsley on top. If you have fresh use fresh.
Serve and enjoy. Try it with some fresh Parm on top.
