âMost people never consider combining sweet potatoes with pasta and kielbasa, but I adapted this recipe from several others and Iâve received several compliments on it, says Rickey Madden of Clinton, South Carolina. You can add more cheese or sausage to suit your taste.â Ingredients:
8 ounces uncooked spiral pasta |
8 ounces johnsonville® smoked sausage, cut into 1/4 inch slices |
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes |

2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 teaspoon minced garlic |
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained |
1 cup heavy whipping cream |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
