Notes

Always cook the sausage well to bring out its flavors. Don't overcook the pasta; it should be al dente for the best texture. Adjust the level of buffalo sauce based on your spice preference. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. For a unique twist, consider adding steak bites for extra protein.
