PENNE WITH SAUSAGE IN CREAMY TOMATO SAUCE
This is an easy recipe with tons of flavor, rigatoni pasta can be used in place of penne. If you are using spicy sausages then omit the chili flakes. Try to use only high-quality canned tomato products, it will really make a huge difference in your sauce, no no-name brands for this! With this sauce (and any tomato-based sauce) it needs some time to cook, the longer you cook the sauce uncovered the thicker and richer it will be, you can even start it in the morning turn it off then continue cooking later, cook for even 2 hours!

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make all the difference in this dish. Look for high-quality Italian sausage, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese.
- Brown the sausage well: Browning the sausage gives it a richer flavor and helps to prevent it from becoming greasy. Be sure to cook it over medium-high heat until it is browned on all sides.
- Use a good quality white wine: The white wine adds a subtle flavor to the sauce. Choose a dry white wine that you would enjoy drinking on its own.
- Don't overcook the pasta: Al dente pasta is the perfect texture for this dish. Cook it according to the package directions, but be sure to taste it before it is fully cooked to make sure it is not overdone.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The pasta will absorb the sauce and become mushy if it sits for too long.

This penne with Italian sausage and cream sauce is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. It is packed with flavor and has a creamy, rich sauce that is perfect for coating the pasta. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or a salad for a complete meal.
