Pesto pasta
Recipe by1 lbs fresh brussels sprouts, ends trimmed and sliced in half
3 TBS olive oil, divided
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
1 lbs bow tie pasta, we used whole grain
4 chicken sausage links (we used Italian flavored) sliced into 1/4" coins
5 cloves garlic, sliced thin
1/3 cup pesto
parmesan cheese
pine nuts
1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Toss the brussels sprouts with 2 TBS oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes or until are lightly browned on the outside and cooked on the inside.
2. Cook your pasta according to package directions. Drain and reserve 1/4 cup cooking liquid.
3. Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat and cook the sausage, turning occasionally until nearly browned. Add in the garlic and cook an additional minute or two until the sausage is cooked through.
4. Time to toss! Mix pasta, water, sausage & garlic, pesto and a handful of parmesan together. Top with additional cheese and the pine nuts. Serve warm in deep bowls.
