Ahhhh...vodka sauce! My favorite alternate sauce for pasta. I find vodka sauce to have a nice balance between a cream sauce and a tomato sauce. I happened upon this recipe in the Weight Watchers website so I thought I'd give it a go.
The recipe calls for a few ingredients - always a good thing for me, since I don't like to spend a heck of a whole lot of time in the kitchen. And, I had all of them in my pantry.
The recipe calls for:
1 tbsp. butter
1 shallots
2 cloves garlic
2tbsp. tomato paste
cream
parsley
vodka
salt/pepper
basil chiffonade(d)
I had dinner with a pal last Friday. Stuck a good dvd movie on, poured a glass of red, plopped down on the sofa and slurped down. We followed this up with a simple salad tossed with a mustard vinaigrette. Topped this dinner off with a coffee slush that called for vanilla ice cream and espresso.
Rubbed our bellies in delight as we enjoyed the rest of the movie and gossiped the rest of the evening.
All in all, not bad for a 9pt dinner.
