Brussel Sprout and Apple Sausage Pesto Pasta

1 Package Brussel Sprouts washed and cut in half
3 Chicken Apple Sausage links sliced ( I like the brand from Sam's Club)
16 oz Penne Pasta
2 garlic cloves minced
1 small jar prepared Pesto
Parmesan Cheese

Preheat oven to 375, toss brussel sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper.  Place on cookie sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes.  Cook penne according to package, reserve 1 cup cooking liquid.

In large skillet heat 1-2 tablespoons olive oil and add garlic.  Saute until fragrant then add sliced chicken sausage.  Add cooked penne, toss well, add roasted brussel sprouts, and pesto to your liking.  Add half cup of cooking liquid to loosen sauce.  Sprinkle top with Parmesan cheese.
