Measure out your pasta and cheese before starting so the cooking process stays smooth. For quick cleanup, keep paper towels handy and use separate bowls for mise en place.

Making Creamy One Pot Kielbasa Pasta

Start by browning the kielbasa until the edges are beautifully caramelized. Use a sturdy, nonstick skillet like the SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch for even browning without sticking.

After sautéing onions and garlic, add the pasta and liquids directly to the same pot. Let the pasta simmer gently, soaking up flavor as everything blends together. A Farberware Professional Heat Resistant Nylon Meat and Potato Masher helps to mix ingredients and break up any clumps for a consistent, creamy texture. Finish the dish with heavy cream and a generous portion of shredded cheese, stirring until the sauce is luscious and velvety.

For a full meal, serve with a crisp green side salad stored in a Bentgo Salad Container – 54 oz Bowl if you’re meal prepping. Leftovers keep well, so store them in Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers and reheat for satisfying lunches all week.

Garnish with fresh parsley and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese for a pop of color and extra flavor. Bring to the table with a loaf of crusty bread to scoop up every bit of the creamy sauce.
