    I make this all the time! It's so delicious, I can't believe it's so healthy. I crave this dish as much as I crave some fatty unhealthy dishes. The only thing I do different is instead of freezing and cutting the sausage, I just remove the casings and crumble and prepare this way and it's great! - 7/14/10

    This was so easy and tasty! I added cauliflower to up the veggies and a few red pepper flakes to add a little kick. I will definitely make this again. - 4/21/11

    Absolutely delicious. I substituted minced garlic from a jar and did not use the reserved pasta water. Such a generous serving and oh so filling. I'll definitely be making this again. - 4/18/09

    I used Mexican hot chorizo and used it like ground beef. This was so simple but so EXTREMELY good. My wife has made me promise that I'll be making this once a week for a while. Thank you for posting this one. - 11/18/08
