Turkey Sausage and Corn Pasta
My daughter and I love fusilli and farfalle pasta {those cute little bow ties}. I don’t know if that happens to you that you keep the remaining pasta so at some point there are like 10 different boxes with just a little bit of pasta in each.
Well, that happens to me very often so, this time I mixed these 2 so we both were happy LOL

Ingredients:
- Onion {chopped} – I used fresh onions as it adds a special flavor.
- Turkey sausages {sliced} – I used one package of 5 Turkey Smoked Sausages. These turkey hotdogs are delicious on their own and they are a great addition to this dish!

- Your favorite Pasta – I used fusilli and farfalle.
- Heavy cream
- Garlic clove
- Salt
- Butter
- Parmesan cheese *Optional
Directions:
- In a large pot boil water and start making your pasta as per package instructions. Then drain and set aside.
- Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the butter. When it is melted add the onion, garlic, and salt.
- Cook for about 3 minutes or until it’s getting transparent.
- Then add the sausage. Fry lightly until browned
- Add the corn.
- Leave it for about 5 more minutes over medium heat.
- Put it away from heat and stir the heavy cream and parmesan cheese. Mix well and leave it to sit for 5 minutes.
- Serve over the pasta and enjoy!
Serving and Storing
Serving. This recipe is best enjoyed the minute the sauce is ready. In fact, this is when all Italian-type pasta dishes taste their best!
Storing. You can definitely store leftovers, but you’ll likely need to add some more light cream to loosen the sauce again as you reheat the pasta. Leftover pasta will be softer, but still plenty flavorful.
Freezer. Because of the pasta and dairy in this dish, it isn’t a good idea to freeze and thaw.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, you can replace the turkey sausage with your favorite one, pork sausage, Italian sausage, or even chicken sausage.

Looks delish Cami and I can feel comfy using my noodle scraps and fav sausage. I bet this would be good with leftover ham as well. You always have it going on over here! Thanks for linking to Snickerdoodle Sunday!
Hi Cami! Thanks for sharing this with our Let’s Get Real readers. This looks like a perfect recipe for my family. My two non-vegetable eaters have decided that they will eat corn and they love sausage. This recipe is sure to be a new favorite for them. Toss in a salad and use whole wheat pasta and it will be quite filling for even the boys in my family with large appetites.
I’m often looking for recipes that my 6- and 7-year-olds can make mostly independently in the kitchen – and this fits the bill perfectly. Thank you! I’ll probably add this to our lunch menu for sometime in the next few weeks when one of them is on lunch duty with me!
I’m visiting from the Family Fun Friday link-up! Blessings!
Yay! I stopped by from Whatever Goes Wednesday — I’m pinning this to my Kid Friendly recipe board on Pinterest and adding it to my meal plan for this month. Thanks!
This looks delicious! MY kids have been all about sausage since they had it at the grandparents over the holiday, so I will have to make this for them!
This looks like an easy and delicious meal! Pinning it now! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
I saw your link on FoodGawker and was impressed by your presentation. Personally, I am a vegetarian, but, I have friends who will LOVE this recipe. They have pickly children and it is always a challenge to get them to eat. Creative dishes like this always helps.
