    Just a note, I recalculated this with 16 oz bow tie pasta, and 16 oz ground pork Italian sausage just to check and the calories were 498 calories per serving with 8 servings. - 2/2/10

    This was very tasty and the whole family loved it. I agree w/ another user that heavy cream made no sense so I used a 5oz container of plain greek yogurt. It turned out great! I will leave out the pepper flakes next time though. - 5/21/12

    This was delicious and a big hit in my home. I used Italian turkey sausage, omitted the olive oil, added diced mushrooms and only used 1 C of fat free half and half. Thanks for the recipe!! - 7/8/08

    I used a can of tomato sauce as my picky eaters don't like "chunks" and they really seemed to like it. - 9/14/11

    Was a little spicy for the kids, next time I'll cut down on the pepper flakes. Also, my half and half seperated a bit as it was reducing. Didn't effect the flavor at all, just looked a little unappealing. Overall a very good recipe! - 3/29/11
