Smoked Sausage Cajun Alfredo

Smoked Sausage Cajun Alfredo is a creamy fettuccine alfredo dish tossed with smoked sausage and seasoned with Cajun seasoning and crushed red pepper. It is a flavorful twist on the classic pasta dish, and I love the added spice and smoked sausage! It all works well together, and it can be ready in about 30 minutes. (I love that, too!) 

• 8 ounces fettuccine
• 1 ring (13.5 ounces) smoked sausage, cut into ¼-inch pieces
• ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter
• 2 cups (476 g) heavy whipping cream
• 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
• 1 cup (100 g) parmesan cheese, grated
