Cheesy Sausage Penne

Cheesy Sausage Penne

1 lb Italian sausage

1 clove garlic

26 oz spaghetti sauce

1 lb penne

8 oz cream cheese

1 c. sour cream

4 green onions, sliced

2 c. grated cheddar

Cook sausage and garlic, add sauce. Cook 20 min. Cook pasta. Combine cream cheese, sour cream, cheddar and onions. Combine sausage and pasta and put ½ in a 9X13. Dollop ½ of the cheese mixture, then repeat layers. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Yield: 10-12 servings.

Freezer Meal Instructions:

Do NOT cook penne. Defrost on counter or in refrigerator, do not microwave this one. Combine sauce and raw penne in a 9 X 13 pan. (The sauce has 1 1/4 c. water added to it already to cook the penne) Cut one corner off of the cheese bag and squeeze blobs of it into the sauce. I put the end down into the pan, almost to the bottom and squeeze until it starts to bubble up. Do this all over the pan of pasta until it is gone. This will nearly fill your pan. Tightly cover with foil and bake at 350 for 50-60 minutes or until the pasta is cooked to your liking.

Side Dish Ideas:

We like to eat this with a green salad and green beans.
