Cheesy Penne Pasta And Smoked Sausage Casserole - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups penne pasta, uncooked
    14 ounces smoked sausage, cut into 1/4 inch slices
    1 1/2 cups milk
    1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of celery soup
    1 1/2 cups cheddar French-fried onions, separated (I couldn't find cheddar, so I used regular and it was great)
    1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded, divided
    1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded, divided
Preparation
    Cook pasta according to package directions.
    Meanwhile, brown sausage in a skillet and drain. (I skipped this step since I was using fully cooked turkey smoked sausage and wouldn't have any fat to render).
    In a large bowl, combine milk and soup.
    Stir in 1/2 cup onions, 1/4 cup of each cheese, and sausage.
    Drain pasta and stir into sausage mixture.
    Transfer to a greased 13 x 9 baking dish.
    Cover and bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until bubbly.
    Sprinkle with remaining onions and cheese.
    Bake, uncovered, 3-5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.
