Sausage Creamy Cajun Pasta | Slimming Friendly

Pasta is such a comfort food, you can make a massive batch and have it cold for days! I am eating a lot of pasta lately, thanks to the current lockdown the UK is in. I managed to order a lot of pasta through work to see me through.

I have created a Creamy Cajun Pasta before and had some sausages that needed using up, and just like that this dish was created.

The beauty of it is that you can adjust the spice to suit you, adding more or less.

I cooked this dish in my frying pan, using an extra pan to cook the pasta. Then you just need to add the pasta to the sauce and top with cheese.

You can use any low-fat sausage you like for this recipe, just adjust the calories if you are using a normal sausage.

You can use any pasta you like for this dish, it would also be delicious with spaghetti.
