Everyone loves this recipe: guys, gals, and kids alike. You get a big bowlful that's jam-packed with turkey sausage, cremini mushrooms, and roasted red peppers. You really can't go wrong with that! This pasta dish also features minced garlic, skim milk, green peas, lots of scallions, and grated Parmesan cheese—a flavor combination we simply can't get enough of. Plus, it comes together in just 30 minutes and is perfect to make on a chilly weeknight when comfort food needs to be on the menu. You can also omit the sausage entirely if you want to turn this into a vegetarian main.
