- While pasta is cooking:
- Cut 1/2 of the sausgae into bite size pieces (freeze the rest)cook for 1-2 mins in the microwave
- In a large glass bowl pour in Ragu (or any sauce) add cooked sausage and put in microwave for 1 to 3 mins
- Add in half of the pasta and the cheese then the rest of the pasta and stir.
