Hi! I just saw a really good recipe on a cooking show, I thought you might
like to try it since you've got some nice Italian sausage:

Remove sausage from casings, crumble it up and brown it in a little olive
oil. Cook pasta al dente. In another large skillet heat the ricotta, adding
a little pasta water if necessary to make a smooth mixture. Add plenty of
ground black pepper, 2 tsp red pepper flakes, and the browned sausage. Stir
well, add drained pasta to skillet, and stir again to mix. Serve with a
generous sprinkling of freshly grated cheese.
