Pennette alla Vodka

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

vodka

🥗Healthier: non-alcoholic vodka substitute

💰Cheaper: flavored sparkling water

Non-alcoholic options maintain flavor without alcohol

Boil water and cook the penne according to package instructions until al dente.

In a pan, sauté the chopped red onion and diced pancetta until the onion is translucent and the pancetta is crispy.

Add the chopped chili and cook for an additional minute.

Stir in the passata di pomodoro and let it simmer for a few minutes.

Pour in the vodka and allow it to cook off for a couple of minutes.

Add the cream and mix well, letting it simmer until the sauce thickens.

Combine the cooked penne with the sauce, mixing thoroughly.

Serve with grated parmigiano on top if desired.
