Easy Peasy Goat Cheese and Sausage Penne

This week has been declared clean out the fridge and freezer week! I like to take 3-4 nights every few weeks and dig through the freezer and pantry and create some interesting meals. Usually I don't blog them b/c they aren't anything special, but I wanted to blog a few to show how simple it is to make a dinner when you think you have nothing to make!

Easy Peasy Goat Cheese and Sausage Penne

From the pantry:

1/2 lb. Penne Pasta

Chicken Stock

Yellow Onion

From the freezer:

1 c. Peas

4 links Asiago Mushroom Chicken Sausage

From the Fridge:

1 4 oz. log Herbed Goat Cheese

1/4 c. Fat Free Creamer

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt heavily, add pasta.

In a large skillet, add sliced sausage and onion. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, or until sausage is heated through and onions are softened.

Drain pasta.

Add peas, pasta, creamer, and stock to the sausage and onions. Crumble in goat cheese, stir to combine until everything is melty and heated through. Season with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Serve immediately.

Peas can be interchanged with broccoli, bell pepper strips, or artichokes!

Only have bulk sausage crumbles? Use those instead! Or even ground turkey spiced with sage, fennel seeds and sugar.
