I’ve made it simple by including a few shortcuts, such as using jarred spaghetti sauce and cooked sausage, but this meal is just as special and impressive.
The main star of this recipe is the Rosa Sauce. If you’ve never had this you’re in for a treat.
How to Make Rosa Sauce
Rosa sauce is an equal combination of marinara sauce and alfredo sauce. It mixes together into a thick and creamy spaghetti sauce with a lovely pink or salmon hue.
You can use it anywhere you would normally use marinara sauce or alfredo sauce, including spaghettis, over ravioli, sauces for meats, or in lasagna. I think I might just try it with all of the above.
Easy Shrimp and Sausage Spaghetti
This rich and flavorful spaghetti is a great way to use rosa sauce. The flavors pair well with shrimp and Andouille sausage to create a decadent and romantic dinner.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Pasta: I used brown rice spaghetti noodles for a gluten-free option.
- Bertolli® Traditional Marinara Sauce and Bertolli Alfredo With Aged Parmesan Cheese: Mix these together to make the rosa sauce
- Shrimp: Peeled and deveined.
- Andouille sausage: I used natural chicken sausage for a healthier and leaner protein
- Sun-dried tomatoes: Adds extra flavor and texture to the final dish
- Fresh parsley: Makes a colorful garnish for Italian dishes.

I am a pasta lover. This is the perfect dinner for date night. I know hubby is going to love it too.
I’m a big fan of this flavor combination. It goes perfectly with the Rosa sauce. Makes for a delicious meal.
Oh wow! Such a wonderful pasta dish for a date night at home. Those flavors sound fantastic and I love how easily everything comes together.
I don’t eat much seafood anymore but I do enjoy shrimps, or prawns as we call them in the UK. This would be a great go-to dish for a date night!
