We can't remember where we got this recipe but it is delicious! Sure, it may require an angioplasty afterwards, but it is worth it!

"A really nice change of pace for a traditional Italian style pasta dish. I've made this dish three times so far. The first two times, exactly as posted...the third time, I couldn't leave well enough alone--I added about a cup of Fontina cheese to the white sauce and served the dish sprinkled with freshly grated Asiago and a few grinds of crushed red pepper. Both versions are excellent." - sgrishka

    I made a couple of tweaks to the recipe according to what the reviews stated and because I am gluten free. I used half milk and half heavy cream and I started off sautéing the onion & some carrots and then added 1 & 1/2 tbsp of GF flour. Result: the hubby loved it! That always scores A+ in my book. Thanks!

    Next time i make this there will be just one flake of cayenne. Way too hot for us, but good flavors

    Measurememts on the ingredients list were messed up. It was ok but i'm going to have to change the sauce next time. Following the measurements given in the ingedients, the sauce was way too runny

    Amazing! My husband fell in love so I made it for the rest of my family for a get together and everyone loved it.

    Wow! I made almost this exact recipe a week ago from scratch! First I put the water to boil for the fettucine. Then I cooked the sausage with parsley, cayenne, seasoned salt, garlic powder, Italian seasonig and pepper. Then I made the sauce but added Parmesan to it! It was delicious!

    Quick to make and tasty. I didn't have parsley so I substituted some Basil, and it turned out nicely.

    Pretty darn good! Next time I will just buy a white sauce instead of using the milk base.

    It was the best ever the only thing I had to change was to add some more flour because the sauce was a little thin n imma thick sauce type of guy.

    It was so easy to make and tasty too.

    Just finished eating and it was delicious!! My only recommendation is to use a bit more flour as your are simmering the final mix. The sauce was a bit thin. Other than that....very good!

    i was disappointed it was good but not what i expected

    Surprisingly simple and tasty! Would definately make it again. Recommended!

    Very Good. A couple changes I made were: I used fresh minced garlic instead of garlic powder. I did not use any butter - just use a little of the grease from the sausage instead.

    An excellent change from the usual 'red' sauces. Instead of 2 tsp. flour (maybe a mis-print?) for the white sauce, I used 2 tablespoons and the sauce was perfect. Yes, you do have to be careful when adding the milk and stir constantly or it will curdle and stick! I will certainly add this to my 'favorite' recipes!

    Even better with substitutions! Last night we substituted 2 T each of fresh basil and oregano, added a diced red wax pepper, and switched out half and half for one of the cups of milk. The result is the version in the picture.

    Great meal, I used garlic fettuccini noodles it added a nice flavor. My kids enjoyed it too. I will make this again.
