I got this recipe from: www.kevinandamanda.com.  I have changed it just a little for how I like to cook it but it was voted a keeper unanimously by my family.

1 Tbsp olive oil
1 lb smoked sausage, cut up into bite-sized pieces - pick your favorite flavor
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 (10 oz) can Ro-Tel tomatoes and green chiles, Mild
1/2 cup heavy cream
12 oz penne pasta
1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, each
2 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions

1. Add oil to a large skillet over medium heat.  Brown sausage and onions till lightly browned, about 4 minutes.  Add garlic and cook for a few more minutes.
