Instructions

1
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the sliced kielbasa and diced onion. Cook until the sausage is browned and the onion is softened, about 5-7 minutes.
2
Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3
Stir in the uncooked pasta, tomato sauce, and beef broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste and stir everything together.
4
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat, cover the skillet, and let it cook for about 12 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente and has absorbed most of the liquid.
5
Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the shredded Colby Jack cheese and a splash of milk.
6
Stir until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is creamy.
7
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
