Notes
- This dish can be prepared using ground beef instead of Italian sausage. The Nutritional Info is based on using Italian sausage.
- "Short pasta" is a term that describes pastas that are not long string-like pieces such as spaghetti or linguine. Examples of short pastas are:
- Cavatappi (corkscrew shaped tubes)
- Farfalle (bowties, which were used in the recipe photo)
- Ziti (short straight macaroni tubes)
- Gemelli (two short lengths of tubes twisted together)
- Shells (seashell shaped)
- Adjustments from the recipe as originally posted:
- The original made 6 servings, but would have created leftover ingredients such as marinara sauce and pasta. Quantities have been adjusted slightly to make 8 servings instead.
- The original called for 1/2 teaspoon of salt. It was removed because of high sodium content in the other ingredients.
- The original called for a type of short pasta called Mafalda, which resembles miniature lasagna noodles. These are not normally found in a local grocer, so any short pasta can be substituted. When using Mafalda with the 8-serving version, use 14 ounces of pasta and increase the amount of chicken broth by 1/2 cup. This is because Mafalda absorbs more liquid than other pastas, and the resulting dish will be very dry without these adjustments.
