You all know we love sausage. You’ve heard me mention a gazillion times how much we especially enjoy Johnsonville Sausages {Here are just a few of the recipes we’ve featured using those scrumptious sausages: Stuffed Turkey Breast w/Pomegranate Glaze,  Sausage Kebabs glazed w/balsamic and fig preserves, Ultimate Spaghetti Sauce…I could literally go on and on because, hello it’s sausage…told you we LOVE them and USE them all the time}

To get you inspired, I prepared a little something something myself ; ) Pappardelle alla Salsiccia {Pappardelle Pasta with you got it Johnsonville Sausages} Pappardelle means ribbons in Italian and this pasta, is exactly that, ribbons and ribbons of luxurious egg pasta kissed with a beautiful Italian sausage and tomato sauce that’s given a little zing with some equisite balsamic vinegar! 

Pappardelle pasta with Sausage twirled around fork sitting on white plate.

I saved a forkful just for YOU ; )

    This looks amazing, the photos are fantastic. I wish I had some sausage (and that they made gluten free pappardelle pasta), I would totally make this tonight! YUM.

    I am a total sausage fiend as well. Like, it’s serious. My freezer is chock full of them. And I am the only one in my apartment who’ll eat them. Will definitely be trying this pasta dish! And brainstorming ideas for the Johnsonville contest!

    Pasta looks delicious!! As always great pics. Do you have any tips or tricks for a newbie blogger on taking better food pics? Maybe a link that you use or what kind of camera you’re using?

    Lovely recipe, Paula. We cook with sausages all the time – really, what’s not to like? The sausage tucked into the folds of the pappardelle is very enticing.

    That pasta looks and sounds fantastic! I hadn’t heard of the contest … had heard of the tastespotting/Johnsonville contest but not this one. That’s a lot of $$!

    I have been using Johnsonville spicy italian sausages for cookouts for years – I love the things, though I’ve never used them for pastas – this looks like a great idea!

    Paula, Paula, Paula. I love you and I hate you at the same time. Is that okay? 😉

    This looks incredible and amazing and wonderful and way too delicious. Not to mention beautiful. I am so hungry now I can’t even describe it…!
