Ah, that hit the spot.
Creamy Sausage & Ramp Pasta
4 - 6 oz pasta
1/2 T olive oil
8 oz bulk Italian sausage
10 ramps
2/3 c half & half
1/4 c paced, grated parmesan cheese
salt & pepper
Cook pasta according to directions. When cooked drain & set aside.
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage & cook through. Slice the ramps; bulbs, stems & leaves, keeping the leaves separate from the bulbs & stems. Add the bulbs & stems to the skillet & sauté for 2 -3 minutes until slightly softened. Add the half & half and cheese. Bring to a simmer & stir for 1 minute. Add the cooked pasta & ramp leaves. Stir until the ramp leaves wilt slightly, you still want them to have a little crunch, and everything is heated through. Season with salt & pepper.
2 servings

So creamy and delicious! Great dinner!
Great creamy comfort dish and your weather sopunds like mine today.
I totally agree a delicous comfort food.
Never go can go wrong with a good comfort meal when it feels like rain.
Nice use of ramps. Still bummed I am having a hard time finding them here.
Ramps are so "in" right now! This dish looks creamy and comforting. Yum.
very nice :) perfect for a rainy day. I've started just seasoning ground pork shoulder for dishes like this instead of buying pre-made sausage so I know exactly what's in it!
Another ramp recipe - I've got to find some of those!
What is ramp?
creamy is good. sausage is good. ramps? i'm not quite sold on those yet, but give me some time. :)
Giff - We used our own homemade Italian sausage as well, its really the best thing.
Angelynn - Ramps are also known as wild leeks.
I'm amazed at how easy and simple this is! I have never had ramps but might adapt this recipe for one of my worknight dinners!
That sure does look creamy! I just love ramps. I need to go to the woods and pick some. I sure dont want to pay 2 dollars for them again. I wish we had a CSA nearby like you. I love your posts about what is in your cSA box, its like Christmas.
That pasta looks really tasty! I like the use of the ramps!
That looks sooooo good. Aren't ramps the best? Where did you find yours? I actually had to turn to eBay.
I'm all over this dish...cream, sausage and tasty ramps. I'm glad I finally tried them this year.
This dish was so tasty, and it was quick to prepare. My husband and I made it with ramps that we harvested yesterday in the mountains. Yum!!
