We really loved this dish. We used mild Italian sausage and pepper jack cheese, because that's what we had on hand, but otherwise made as instructed. As we were putting it together, we had our doubts about there being enough liquid to cook the pasta, but it turned out great! I've added to my recipe box, and we'll be making this again.
