Last week Gaines and I tried a new recipe I saw on Pinterest and both really liked it! It didn't take long to make and was really delicious and filling. Next time I might try to add some type of veggie like broccoli or asparagus to my portion, but it was definitely good as is.

1/3 cup thinly sliced scallions (we left these out, too)
Directions:
1. Add olive oil to an oven-safe skillet over medium high heat. Add sausage and onions and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
2. Add broth, tomatoes, cream, pasta, salt and pepper and stir. Bring to a boil, cover skillet, and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until pasta is tender, about 15 minutes.
3. Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1/2 cup cheese. Top with remaining cheese and sprinkle with scallions. Broil until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Enjoy!
