If you are looking for a quick, easy and delicious dinner recipe, you've come to the right place! The hearty mushrooms, smoky kielbasa and filling pasta cooked in a creamy sauce make this dish my go-to recipe when I am short on time.
I've learned this recipe from my mom, who has lived in Italy for the past 15 years. She is a chef, so she knows her way around food, especially when it comes to pasta dishes. She is coming to visit me in January, so you should expect A LOT of pasta dishes on Cooktoria during her stay. I've never met a person who loves to cook more than my mom, and I know I won't be able to stop her. 🙂

This was great! I used rotini. I got some reindeer kielbasa in a gift pack for Xmas, and it had been calling to me for a very long time. Looking forward to reheating this for leftovers tomorrow!
That's so great to hear! Thanks for reporting back, Denyse!
Love all your recipes can you use milk instead of heavy cream I don’t have any cream on hand can I do milk instead with that still work ???
Hi Tanya! Milk doesn't have enough fat to make that creamy luscious sauce. With milk, it will be very runny, so I wouldn't recommend it.
