I am Italian, so pasta is my life, but not all pasta is good, weeding through the flavors can be challenging to come up with good recipes that you want to make more then once. But when You find that perfect blend of flavors, that is when you know you hit the jackpot. This Delicious Creamy Sausage and Mushroom pasta is exactly that. I ate so much the first time, I couldn't eat almost the whole next day, it was that good!
