Italian Sausage Linguine

I cut this recipe out of the coupons a while ago and just got the chance to try it this week. It was Fabulous! It used the sweet basil italian sausage. It could also be done with some chicken. It makes a bunch and is excellent leftover for lunch! I served it with a sprinkling of parmesan and some asiago cheese.
