One Pot Smoked Sausage Skillet Pasta

I got this one-pot pasta recipe from Damn Delicious. This is pretty much like mac and cheese except with sausage and prep work.

Ingredients

(From the pantry)

• 1.5 tbsp olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 cubes mushroom bouillons
• 12 oz macaroni
• salt and pepper, to taste

(From the market)

• 1 large onion, diced
• 500g smoked sausage (we used Polish and Ukrainian smoked sausages)
• 3 tomatoes, cored and diced
• 2 cups milk
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

1. Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium high heat.
2. Add garlic, onion, and sausage. Cook, stirring frequently, until sausage is lightly browned, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Stir in bouillon, 3 cups of water, tomatoes, milk, and pasta.
4. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer until pasta is cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
6. Remove from heat and top with cheese.
7. Cover with lid until cheese has melted, about 2 minutes.

It was pretty good. Simple, filling, and not a lot of dishes to wash afterwards. I may make this again in the future instead of my farmer style mac and cheese (which calls for bacon).
