It was quick and easy to throw together and the kids loved it as much as we did!  If you’ve never used roasted red peppers before, don’t let “red pepper” scare you.  They are oh-so-mild bell peppers which get roasted to give them a deeper flavor.  You can use the jarred variety or you can roast your own.  We have a tutorial here if you want a step-by-step of the process. Roasted red pepper and sausage alfredo is a crowd-pleaser!

For me, the Parmesan shavings totally make this dish!  Both of our kids love this and especially like to dig for the “hot dogs” in their pasta dishes.  Roasted red pepper and sausage alfredo is a crowd-pleaser! Check out the recipe today on www.orsoshesays.com.

We hope you’ll give it a try!
