Creamy cajun pasta

Step 1

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, melt the butter over medium heat until just bubbling. Add the sausage, then season with salt. Brown for 2 minutes on one side, then stir and brown on the other side for 2 minutes more.

Step 2

Add the onion, season with salt, and cook for 2 minutes, until starting to soften. Add the jalapeño, garlic, and tomato paste. Stir to distribute the tomato paste. Add the Jazzy spice blend and stir to combine.

Step 3

Add the pasta, red and green peppers, mushrooms, and salt and stir to combine. Pour in the tomatoes and stock. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, until the pasta is cooked through and the peppers are tender but not mushy.

Step 4

Mix in the cream cheese to create a thick, creamy sauce.

Step 5

Serve garnished with scallions, if desired.

Step 6

Enjoy!
