Penne Pasta with Sausage in Cream Sauce

I realized that pretty much all my recipes in my sidebar are chicken. But I want you to know, that we do eat something other than chicken. Sometimes we venture out and have the other white meat...pork!

1 lb italian sausage

1 T butter

1 T olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 lb penne pasta

1 c shredded parmesan cheese

2/3 c dry white wine

1 14.5 oz can diced, peeled tomatoes with juice

1 c whipping cream

Melt butter with oil in large skillet over med-high heat. Add onion and garlic. Saute til golden brown and tender, about 7 minutes.

Add sausage and cook through. Drain.

Add wine to skillet and boil til most liquid is evaporated,

about 2 minutes.

Add tomatoes and simmer about 3 minutes.

Add cream and simmer 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Cook pasta. Drain and transfer to large bowl. Pour sauce over pasta. Add 3/4 cup parmesan cheese. Toss to coat. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.

Hope you like this yummy recipe!

And for the record, we do eat red meat. Sometimes.
