Tips and Variations
- Use spicy Italian sausage for a kick of heat or mild sausage for a more classic flavor.
- Add a handful of baby spinach or sun-dried tomatoes for a pop of color and freshness.
- Substitute rigatoni with penne, ziti, or fusilli — any short pasta works well to hold the sauce.
- For a lighter version, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream and reduce the Parmesan slightly.
