Comfort Food Made Quick and Easy: Creamy Sausage Tuscan Pasta Skillet Recipe

I love an easy pasta skillet recipe! 

You can cook the pasta alongside this sauce, or you can cook the pasta in with the sausage in a large skillet with tight fitting lid. 

(If you plan to cook the pasta with the sauce, you will need to add 2 more cups of chicken stock and add the pasta in under directions #3. Cook the pasta in the covered skillet over medium low heat for 8 to 9 minutes. Let cool before serving.)
