Spicy Sausage Blue Cheese Pasta: Serves 4
8oz Pasta
4 Hot Italian Turkey Sausage (I like Shadybrook brand)
1/4C Blue Cheese Crumbles
1/2C Sour Cream (I use Daisy's Light)
2TB Milk (fat free)
1tsp Olive Oil
1lbs Asparagus - Chopped into 1-2" segments (optional)
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta until al dente. Drain and set to the side. While the pasta is cooking you can get started on everything else. In a large greased saute pan toss in the sausages and break into smaller pieces (you can remove from the casing if you would like). Cook over medium heat until cooked through then remove to a small bowl and set to the side. Add the olive oil to the pan and then the asparagus with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook for 4-5 minutes until the asparagus is a vibrant green but still somewhat crunchy when you pierce with a fork.
If your pasta is done you can toss it with the sausage and asparagus then add all the remaining ingredients and stir to incorporate them all together. Cover with a lid and let it sit for a few minutes then serve and enjoy :)
