Just last weekend, I attended a potluck with a few of my friends. It was our monthly get-together, which we hold at someone’s house. Usually, I bring my family with me, but my husband told me to enjoy the day with my friends and he would take care of our kids. As much as I was reluctant to go, I still did. Before we started a family, my husband and I talked about spending time with our friends sometimes. It’s the perfect balance to a family life, which I can attest to. It can be considered a “me” time; something we all need once in a while.
Prior to the occasion, my friends and I talked online via this messaging app, which I think is handy nowadays, by the way. We wanted a theme for our get together. We also decided to assign a type of food to people so that there wouldn’t be any duplicate.
As usual, I was assigned a pasta dish. They knew it’s my specialty and that it would be the easiest for me to prepare. They were so considerate that I decided to really please them with what I was going to bring.
So I decided on this cheesy baked penne pasta with sausage recipe. It’s a classic dish; a simple one even, but it tastes really good and really savory. I brought a casserole of dish to the potluck and I was proud to say that it’s one of the first dishes to vanish just like that.
Don’t worry- I am sharing the recipe with you on the next page. Yes, you’re welcome!
