Turkey Delight Pasta

During the holidays, you may be looking for an easy meal to prepare. This pasta dish is simple to prepare, and you can use what you have on hand. We are using turkey Italian sausage and some fresh vegetables you may have in your refrigerator.

 

If you happen to have some leftover chicken on hand, that will also work very well in this dish. Honestly, I think this would work well with pork Italian sausage too!
