• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Halve, core, and thinly slice bell pepper into strips. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Zest and quarter lemon. • Remove sausage* from casing; discard casing.

• Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and scallion whites; cook, stirring, until slightly softened, 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

• Add sausage to pan; cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. • Season with salt and pepper. If you like things spicy, stir in a pinch of chili flakes and cook until fragrant, 15 seconds. TIP: If there’s excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out. Rinse shrimp under cold water. Pat shrimp or chicken dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper. Swap in shrimp or chicken (no need to break up into pieces!) for pork; cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 3-4 minutes for shrimp or 4-6 minutes for chicken.

• Once water is boiling, add rigatoni to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 9-11 minutes. • Reserve 1/2 cup pasta cooking water, then drain.

• Add half the diced tomatoes (all for 4 servings) to pan with sausage mixture and cook until softened, 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low. • Stir in Philadelphia Cream Cheese, sour cream, half the Parmesan (save the rest for serving), 1/4 cup reserved pasta cooking water, and 1 TBSP butter until thoroughly combined. (For 4, use 1⁄3 cup reserved pasta cooking water and 2 TBSP butter.) • Season with salt, pepper, and lemon zest to taste. Add drained rigatoni and toss to coat. TIP: If needed, stir in more reserved pasta cooking water a splash at a time until pasta is coated in a creamy sauce.

• Divide pasta between bowls. Sprinkle with scallion greens, remaining Parmesan, and a pinch of chili flakes if desired. Serve with lemon wedges on the side. Shrimp are fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.
