Method

Roast red pepper in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes. Place pepper in a ziplock plastic bag for 20-30 minutes. Remove and clean out seeds and stem. (If you can buy roasted red peppers, use them and leave off this step.) Cook pasta. Place roasted pepper, cream, Parmesan cheese, and Cajun seasoning in a blender. Cover and puree. Saute sausage in a saucpan; set aside. In another saucepan simmer the pureed pepper mixture until thickened. Add sausage. Serve over pasta. Garnish with green onions.

 

Notes: This sounds like a lot of work, but it really comes together quickly. Especially if you are able to buy roasted red peppers.

 

Number of Servings: 2-4
