I promised this recipe, so here it is.
It is fast and DELICIOUS! We had enough for both of us to have leftovers for lunch and there is still some leftover!
Olive Oil
1 package cheese tortellini
1 package sausage sliced ( I used Hillshire Farms Beef smoked sausage)
Heavy cream
Onion – chopped
Garlic (4 cloves) minced
1.5 tablespoons Cajun spice
Green chives(onions)
Parmesan Cheese
Get a big pot and add water and salt. Bring to rolling boil and add tortellini. Continue to cook according to package.
Meanwhile, add about a tablespoon of olive oil to a frying pan. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened. Add sliced sausage and cook about 5 minutes longer until browned. Stir in cajun seasonings until combined.
Add in heavy cream- about 1 cup to start. You can add more later as you’d like to thin out the sauce. Cook and stir until heated through. Slowly add in parmesan cheese until it melts into the mixture.
Drain tortellini when it’s ready and add to the frying pan with the sausage/sauce. Top with green chives and more parmesan. YUM!

Hi, thanks for stopping by!
I am a writer, and wife to my amazing husband Nicholas. I am a Mom to twin boys: William Matthew and Harrison Michael, who were born premature on August 1, 2015 and departed our world for heaven 3 hours after birth.
I write to help other Mamas who have felt the deep pain that is only understandable to those who have been through it. I write to heal my broken heart.
I am a technical writer and also offer copyediting, proofreading, and document organization for fiction and nonfiction works.
I have over 17 years of experience in publishing, magazine writing, blogging, and newspaper reporting.
I have experience in APA, Chicago, and MLA Styles as well as a BA in English with a concentration in nonfiction writing and rhetoric. I am a big fan of the Oxford Comma, and will spend hours making a document look perfect. In addition to my education and background, I have completed several additional advanced copyediting courses.
Besides writing, I love to cook, read, garden, and decorate the new home my husband and I bought in 2014. I have a huge collection of cookbooks (100+) and love to create new recipes in my free time.
I am a major Pinterest addict, and will spend hours decorating cookies, doing crafts, organizing, and nesting.
I love my sweet niece Olivia and my nephew Hudson with all of my heart. I love being a godmother and will do anything for them!
We brought our golden retriever pup Barley home in March 2017, and he is a gorgeous, spoiled boy who can be quite an adorable rascal. I am expecting a baby girl in February 2021, and couldn't be more excited. We have been waiting to expand our family for so long.
Looking forward to connecting and hearing from my readers!
