Creamy Sausage Rotel Pasta - I am addicted to this quick and easy pasta dish!! Sausage, diced tomatoes and green chiles in a quick cream cheese Alfredo sauce. Ready to eat in about 15 minutes! Spaghetti, sausage, Rotel tomatoes, cream cheese, heavy cream, parmesan, garlic, butter, onion, and parsley. We made this three times this month! We just can't get enough of this spicy sausage pasta dish! #pasta #sausage #quick #easy #familydinner
