About Pasta ala vodka

Pasta Ala Vodka is a creamy and indulgent dish rooted in Italian-American cuisine. It features penne or other pasta shapes coated in a rich tomato-based vodka sauce, made with sautéed onions, garlic, crushed tomatoes, heavy cream, and a splash of vodka to enhance the flavors. Often garnished with fresh basil or grated Parmesan, this dish strikes a perfect balance between tangy and savory. While it provides a hearty source of carbohydrates and some protein if paired with chicken or shrimp, the heavy cream and Parmesan contribute significant saturated fat and calories, making portion size key for health-conscious diners. The dish can be made lighter by using whole-grain pasta and swapping cream for a lower-fat alternative, though its signature lusciousness shines in its traditional form.
