Italian Sausage and Mushroom Pasta Gratin

Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving. This allows the sauce to set slightly for easier serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and added freshness, if desired.
Serve the gratin hot and enjoy this creamy, savory, and comforting dish with your family and friends!

Tips

If you want to add more vegetables, try adding spinach or zucchini to the skillet with the mushrooms for an extra boost of nutrients.
If you prefer a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a chopped jalapeño to the sausage mixture when cooking the vegetables.
For a lighter version, you can substitute the heavy cream with half-and-half or milk, though the sauce may be slightly less rich.
This dish pairs wonderfully with a simple green salad or garlic bread for a complete meal.
