• Add butter, mushrooms and crushed red pepper to same skillet and saute in sausage drippings.
• Cover, cook until mushrooms are tender - about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook the sausage in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Turn it a couple of times so that it browns evenly. Remove the sausage from the skillet and cut into 2-inch pieces.
• Lightly butter a 9 x 13 x 2-inch baking pan. Pour the bread cubes over the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle evenly with the sausage and Cheddar cheese.
• Whisk together the eggs, milk, and dry mustard in a large bowl. Pour the egg mixture over the sausage mixture. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 300°F.
• Remove the pan from the refrigerator, uncover, and pour the mushroom soup mixture over the casserole.
• Bake the casserole, uncovered, for about 1 1/2 hours or until fairly firm inside and lightly golden on top. Let stand for 5 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Sauté sausage in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat until brown and cooked through, breaking up large pieces with fork, about 12 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer sausage to plate. Add mushrooms and crushed red pepper to drippings in skillet. Cover and cook until mushrooms are tender, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes. Add 3/4 cup broth and cream to skillet and set aside.
• Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite. Drain pasta; return to same pot. Add sausage, mushroom mixture and cheese.
