I am just not ready for summer to come to an end but fall is rapidly approaching and we will all be craving comfort food. I believe that eating comfort food should feel like putting on your favorite sweatshirt on a cool fall day. Cozy! So as we think about family friendly meals that are healthy and easy to make, one of my favorite Easy Fit Foods: Tri-Color Rotini with Italian Sausage comes to mind. With two young children, and a husband to please, I have to be creative with how to satisfy everyone in my house. I also need meals to be easy and quick to make. Enter this recipe that I created with what I had on hand in my kitchen the other day! It was an instant hit!
