I love to add ground sausage or use half sausage and half been. You may find a spicy Italian sausage can zest things up a bit, or if you prefer leaving it mild that is fine too. I also love ground chicken as an alternative to beef.

Using the traditional tomato pasta sauce is delicious, but try it with your favourite cream or alfredo sauce with a spoonful of pesto added in for an extra rich and cheesy dish!

You can always substitute greek yogurt for sour cream which works just as well and is just as tasty!

Choose any pasta you have on hand. I have used fusilli or fettuccini for fabulous results!

When it is hot outside, I love to use my BBQ instead of my oven. This recipe works fabulous in the BBQ! I like to set it on the upper shelf to avoid burning the bottom.
