My inspiration for this recipe came from a Cajun pasta dish I make with blackened chicken, however substituting the Italian sausage instead. When I think of sausage I always think of that sausage dip you make with rotel tomatoes. This gave me the idea to add the hot rotels and mix them with the cream sauce which worked wonderfully. I love this dish and it makes a hearty meal that warms you up all over.
