I invented this dish for my kids when were young using all the things they like—sausage, mushrooms, onions, green pepper and pasta. It's still a favorite with them today.—Nelson Wandrey, Paulden, Arizona

I made this because I had some frozen tortellini to use. The recipe was simply sausage and tortellini in white sauce and was sort of bland. I can think of better ways to use expensive tortellini.

I used a canned tomato cream (vodka) sauce-it was quite tasty-added a bit of Parmesan.
