Well, I could eat this every single night for dinner.
Pasta with sliced sausage, fresh corn off the cob and Parm?
Yes, please!
Not only is this delicious (and totally summer!), but it’s easy too! We, of course, make it gluten-free by subbing this pasta for our fettuccine…
…and we use turkey sausage instead of pork or beef, but seriously, use whatever sausage or kielbasa your family loves. Also, if you don’t have fresh corn on the cob, feel free to sub with a drained can of corn or toss in some frozen corn too. However you do it, you’ll love it!

Fresh Corn, Sausage & Parm Pasta
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 15 minutes
- Yield: 4 to 6 1x
Description
Nothing beats fresh corn in the summer! Add your favorite fettuccine, sliced sausage, a little red onion and bam! Dinner is done!
Ingredients
- 1 pound of a kielbasa style sausage, sliced into rounds (we use turkey)
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
- salt and pepper
- 1 red onion, chopped (reserve some for garnish)
- 2 cups of fresh corn kernels
- about three tablespoons of half and half (cream, milk…whatever you love and feel free to add more if you want it even creamier)
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese (reserve some for garnish)
- chopped oregano to garnish
- about a pound of fettuccine pasta, cooked to al dente and ready to enjoy (we use gluten-free)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown up your sausage rounds in a drizzle of EVOO. Once browned (about 4 minutes or so), add in your chopped red onion along with a big pinch of both salt and pepper. Saute another 5 minutes or so until the onion is tender.
- Next, stir in your corn and heat through just a minute or two.
- Finally, stir in your half and half, Parmesan cheese and hot fettuccine noodles (cooked to al dente). Quickly toss everything together and then add in another pinch of salt and pepper.
- Plate pasta and garnish with a bit more chopped red onion, grated Parm and chopped oregano.
- Enjoy!
Notes
This recipe is an easy gluten-free one if you sub the right kind of pasta! Don’t forget, if you want yours a little creamier, you can add a bit more half and half.

What brand of GF turkey sausage do you use? I am having trouble finding a good GF one!
Mix and Match Mama says
Hillshire Farms has a good one!
Alexis deZayas says
Oh I love this idea!! Totally trying this!
grier says
ooooooh the pasta looks amazing!
I was just reading your Fifty Two Shades of Shay: Organizing, Saving and Donating your kids’ clothes it’s so helpful! Thank you! My only question is did you save any of kensington’s matilda jane clothes for Ashby and Madeley?
Mix and Match Mama says
Yes! Ashby then Madeley then Britt and then Violet…we’ve passed down so much!
Jenny says
Oh this looks so good! Your bacon and corn pasta is already on rotation in our house so this will be widely accepted I’m sure lol.
Mix and Match Mama says
Yay!! We love that one too!!!
Joanne says
That sounds delicious and so easy! I have a package of chicken sausage in the freezer that I’ve been holding onto until inspiration struck so thank you. Pinned.
Grier says
Hi shay! Have you ever done a steal vs splurge blog post? If not could you make one! I love seeing what other people choose to spend more money on/ less money on! ?
Leslie Susan Clingan says
This sounds right up my alley. We love the turkey smoked sausage and I often cut it up with potatoes, green pepper and onions. Do you think I could use frozen corn for this?
Mix and Match Mama says
Yes! Just give it enough time to warm up in the skillet (which shouldn’t take long!).
WhittyWife says
I can’t eat corn, but this looks SO good (especially since I love TJ’s fresh fettuccine)! Is there another fresh, summer veggie that you’d recommend to replace corn?!
Mix and Match Mama says
What about asparagus? Or a chopped yellow squash or zucchini?
JoAnn says
Do you boil your corn on the cob first? Or just cut it off right after you shuck it?
Mix and Match Mama says
Just add it in right off the cob after I shuck it!
