About Penne pasta vodka sauce
Penne Pasta with Vodka Sauce is a creamy and flavorful dish rooted in Italian-American cuisine. It features penne pasta coated in a rich tomato-based sauce made with crushed tomatoes, heavy cream, butter, parmesan cheese, and a splash of vodka that enhances its tangy depth. Seasonings like garlic, onion, and basil bring aromatic complexity, while red pepper flakes often add a gentle kick. While the pasta provides energy through carbohydrates, the dish is high in saturated fats due to the cream and butter components, making moderate portioning a wise choice. Its tomatoes contribute antioxidants like lycopene, which support heart health, while parmesan cheese adds calcium for strong bones. Though indulgent, Penne Pasta with Vodka Sauce can be balanced with the addition of vegetables or lean protein to boost its nutritional value while maintaining its hearty appeal.
