Kielbasa Alfredo. Tryin' a new recipe!

I wanted something simple for dinner tonight. This has only six ingredients. That's pretty damn simple. Let's start with the basics:

I'm doubling this recipe, so I'm using two of everything (obviously).

Put your water on to boil for your pasta and cut up your kielbasa slanty-like.

I dunno why. It just looks better. I guess.

By the way, never cut meat up on a wooden surface. Germs get in there. Use a cutting board.

Boil your pasta. Drain, rinse, drain again. While your pasta is boiling, boil your kielbasa in another pan. The original recipe has you frying it in some butter and add salt and pepper. Nope. Too lazy to fry and why add any extra fat? But you can fry it up if you want. If you boil it, drain it. Duh.You'll notice that I'm using light alfredo and turkey polska kielbasa, that REALLY cuts down on the fat and calories. Also, I'll be grinding in some black pepper.

By the way, putting a wooden spoon over your pot really DOES keep it from boiling over.

Once your pasta is done, and your kielbasa is done, throw that kielbasa into the pot with the pasta! Pour in the alfredo sauce and mix it all around. Now eat it. There ya go. There's dinner tonight. As this is a new recipe for us, the review will be below. Gimme time to actually eat it.

Kielbasa Alfredo

• 1 16 oz. package noodles
• 1 pound Turkey Kielbasa
• 1 16 oz jar light Alfredo
• Cracked black pepper to taste
• Parmesan for topping

1. Boil your pasta until the doneness you desire. We like our pasta little soft, so I boiled mine about 14 minutes. Depending on what kind of pasta you use though, that could make it turn to mush. Just follow the directions or do like you normally do. Drain, rinse, drain.
2. Cut up and boil your kielbasa while your pasta is boiling. Drain it when it's done. Pour your pasta and kielbasa in a large bowl, or back in the pot you made your pasta in. Stir in your alfredo sauce. Sprinkle or grind in some black pepper. Stir it up. Serve with a little shredded parmesan. Enjoy!

Review: Liked it! It was a nice change from chicken alfredo and all three kids gave it a thumbs up! It WAS a LITTLE bland, but the parmesan helped. Could use maybe more pepper. Quick, easy and tasty though! 3 1/2 stars.
