penne a la vodka
This is a great Italian recipe I got from my Polish friend Jennifer! Of course I added my own twist to make it even better. It's easy and delicious. On Christmas Eve I have made it for my family and added shrimp. You can also add chicken. You will be a hit with minimal effort. Enjoy!
