This Cheesy Chicken Sausage Pasta Skillet is so creamy and delicious, I had to stop myself from eating it all before I served any! Grown-up Mac & Cheese for the win.
NOTES:
• I used a chickpea Casarecce pasta but any kind that you like will work. Opt for pastas such as penne, rigatoni, or farfalle as they hold sauces very well.
• If you don’t have bone broth, regular broth is fine. I like mixing in bone broth for the added protein and boost of collagen!
• I LOVE the flavor of Chicken Apple sausage but you can replace with your fav kind. The possibilities are endless with this recipe!
