Summer Pasta Salad with Broccoli Melt Sausage & Mozzarella by Seemore Meats & Veggies

Seemore Meats & Veggies knows sausage, crafting creative links we love. But they also know how to use their sausages to transform a simple dish, as in their recipe for Summer Pasta Salad. The star is the Broccoli Melt sausage, infused with broccolini, pepperoncini, and Monterey Jack. It gets tossed with cheesy tortellini, veggies, and big pieces of rich buffalo mozzarella, all coated in a tangy TikTok-inspired dressing. It’s a meal; it’s a side; it’s everything you want in a summer dish.
