Notes
- Feel free to substitute the Italian sausage with kielbasa, chorizo or smoked sausage.
- If you don't like cilantro then you can substitute with parsley for garnish.
- This recipe will last well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 - 4 days. If you'd like to freeze this recipe you may want to only make the sauce and store for up to 3 months, thaw in the fridge over night and make the pasta fresh as needed.
