Penne With Vodka & Spicy Tomato-Cream Sauce
1/4 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
4 Plump fresh garlic cloves
-minced
1/2 tsp Crushed red peppers
-(hot red pepper flakes),
-or to taste
Sea salt
28 oz Can peeled Italian plum
-tomatoes in juice or
-one 28-ounce can crushed
-tomatoes in pure=82
1 lb Dried Italian tubular pasta,
-such as penne
2 tbsp Vodka
1 cup Heavy (whipping) cream
1/4 cup Fresh flat-leaf parsley
-leaves, snipped with
-scissors
In an unheated skillet large enough to hold the pasta later on,
combine oil, garlic, crushed red peppers and a pinch of salt,
stirring to coat with oil. Cook over moderate heat just until the
garlic turns golden but not brown, 2 to 3 minutes. If using whole
canned tomatoes, place a food mill over the skillet and pure'e
tomatoes directly into it. Crushed tomatoes can be added directly.
Stir to blend, and simmer, uncovered, until sauce begins to thicken,
about 15 minutes. Taste for seasoning.
Meanwhile, in a large pot, bring 6 quarts of water to a rolling
boil. Add 3 tablespoons salt and the penne, stirring to prevent
sticking. Cook until tender but firm to the bite. Drain thoroughly.
Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the tomato sauce. Toss.
Add the vodka, toss again, then add the cream and toss. Cover, reduce
the heat to low for 1 to 2 minutes to allow the pasta to absorb the
sauce. Add the parsley and toss again. Transfer to warmed shallow
soup bowls and serve immediately. (Traditionally, cheese is not
served with this dish.)

Dieting made easy
If you enjoy your food, but need to regain your youthful figure and also develop your overall healthiness, without doubt you really should follow a thoughtfully planned sensible weight loss program. If possible, this should incorporate 5 standard portions of fruit/vegetables a day and also include the correct blend of crucial nutrients.
In planning a daily routine, it is important to attempt to decrease consumption of fat, refined carbohydrates and salt.
Dieters far too often look at supermarket and branded products claiming to be 'low fat'. This is ordinarily a mistake, for a food product may be significantly reduced in fats, but also high in carbs & calories.
One useful tip is to drink plenty of water. At times in the course of a busy day, you believe you are peckish but in actuality you simply need a restorative glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of being thirsty and hungry are close, but one of the two results in weight gain and the alternative is healthy.
Rather than focusing on the types of food that you really should eliminate from your meal plan, focus on the nutritionally sound foods that you can add to your meal plan. If you are able to bring in the recommended portions beneficial pulses and vegetables into your diet, you'll soon find that stop feeling hungry and have a significantl;y decreased probability of being tempted by those detrimental mid-afternoon biscuits.
