This is quick and comfort food. I love a cheezy noodle. Carbs? I got yer carbs right here..
Boil some rigitoni- big tubes with ridges to hold sauce, penne would work too. reserve a cup or so of the pasta water.
Meanwhile, in a big pan or pot, brown a couple links of italian sausage, peel off the skin and crumble it up, or any type of sausage with a bit of spice, in a little olive oil. add some red pepper flakes if you want it spicier. Take off the heat and stir in a pint of fresh riccotta. Then dump in the warm pasta. Loosen it to make a sauce with some of the pasta water. salt, pepper and parmesean if you wanna. And you should probably have a little green salad on the side...
