Recipe Summary Creamy Pesto Penne With Sausage

Quick weeknight dinner. Ready in 15 minutes!

Ingredients | 15 Minute Italian

1 (16 ounce) package penne pasta

½ pound ground sausage

1 (1.2 ounce) package creamy pesto sauce mix (such as Knorr®)

1 cup milk

¼ cup olive oil

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook penne at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain and transfer pasta to a bowl.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; add to pasta.

Whisk pesto sauce mix, milk, and olive oil together in a small saucepan; bring to a boil while stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and keep at a simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes; pour over pasta and sausage mixture and toss to coat.

For a lower-fat option, sub fat-free milk.
