• 1 lb. Italian sausage
• 1 large onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 10 oz. shells
• 16 oz. marinara or tomato sauce
• 4 c. low-sodium chicken broth
• 1/2 c. Half and Half or heavy cream
• 1 c. shredded mozzarella
• Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown sausage until golden.
Add onion, garlic, and bell pepper and cook until soft, 5 minutes.

Stir in half and half and mozzarella. Garnish with parsley and serve.
