→ Finishing Touches

01 - 100 g Cheddar, shredded
02 - 15 g scallions, thin sliced, for a sprinkle

→ Main Stuff

03 - 450 g smoked kielbasa or turkey or chicken sausage, 0.5 cm slices
04 - 480 ml chicken broth, low sodium
05 - 15 ml olive oil
06 - 225 g chopped onion
07 - 120 ml milk or heavy cream
08 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
09 - 2.5 ml salt
10 - 283 g diced tomatoes, canned
11 - 225 g small dried pasta
12 - 2.5 ml ground black pepper

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Pour the olive oil into your big pan or skillet, crank the heat up to medium-high.
02 - Toss your sausage slices and onions in next. Let them get a little golden and soft, keep stirring.
03 - Now add your garlic, stir around for half a minute till that awesome smell fills the kitchen.
04 - Pour in the broth, those canned tomatoes with all the juice, pasta, your milk or cream, and both salt and pepper. Give it all a solid stir.
05 - Take the lid off and let it simmer easy for about 15 minutes. Remember to stir here and there. The pasta softens up and the sauce gets thick.
06 - Take your pan off the heat and mix in half the shredded Cheddar till it's all melted in smooth.
07 - Top everything with the rest of the cheese. Cover up so it melts and gets just a bit bubbly and browned.
08 - Toss sliced scallions on top and serve up while it’s still good and hot.
