For a spicier dish, use a smoked sausage with added peppers or spice.
You can substitute other types of pasta, such as rotini or farfalle, for the penne.
Add other vegetables, such as sliced bell peppers or mushrooms, along with the sausage for added flavor and nutrients.
For a richer flavor, use whole milk or half-and-half instead of regular milk.

    Next time, I'll try using a different type of cheese, like mozzarella or provolone, for a different flavor profile.

  • Alex West

    This recipe was a lifesaver on a busy weeknight! My family loved it, and it was so easy to put together.

  • Meaghan Dickens

    I didn't have French-fried onions, so I used crushed potato chips instead. It was surprisingly good!

  • Bobbie Homenick

    I added some sautéed mushrooms and onions to the sausage while browning it, and it added a lot of flavor.
