One Pot Cheesy Smoked Sausage and Pasta Skillet - A 20 minutes meal that cooks all in one pot for less mess and goes quickly from stove to table!

Ingredients:
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 lb. smoked turkey sausage, sliced
1 c. diced onion
1 Tbsp. minced garlic (about 2 fresh cloves)
2 c. chicken broth
1 can (10 oz.) diced tomatoes
1/2 c. milk or heavy cream
8 oz. dry pasta (any small pasta will do)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 c. shredded cheddar-jack cheese
1/3 c. chopped scallions, for garnish

Directions:
Add olive oil to a 5-6 quart saute pan over medium high heat.  Add onions and sausage and cook until lightly browned.  Add garlic and cook for about 30 seconds.

Add chicken broth, tomatoes, milk, pasta and seasonings.  Bring the mixture to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to low.  Simmer for about 15 minutes, or until pasta is tender.

Turn off the heat and stir in 1/2 c. cheese.  Sprinkle remaining cheese on top and cover for about 5 minutes to allow cheese to melt.  Top with sliced scallions and serve.
