We absolutely love cheese in our house. It is my go to snack and I can always find a way to work it into a recipe! This Mushroom Kielbasa Pasta Bake is no exception! This is a family favorite and I make it at least once a month! It is easy and can feed a crowd if you double the recipe!

mushroom kielbasa pasta AMushroom Kielbasa Pasta Bake is kid friendly too! I want to adapt the recipe and add some crushed red pepper flakes to it! I live with people who do not like spice! LOL! I on the other hand love a little heat in my food! The cream in this dish will help tame the the heat a bit!

I like to slice the sausage on a bias to give it a larger surface to cook.

I like to brown the sausage a bit to give it some texture! Then add the onions, garlic and mushrooms!
