Notes

Leftover pasta should be cooled completely before storing. Place it in an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm it in the microwave or on the stove with a splash of chicken broth to keep it moist. You can use any type of smoked sausage you prefer and add vegetables for extra nutrition.
