Hearty dish, easy to make, great with red wine
virginianurse21 - September 10, 2007 08:20:10 PM PSTThis was very easy to make, easy cleanup ... and fun too.
The only substitute I used was johnsonville brats sliced diagonal instead of the prosciutto.
Easier on the budget ... and tastes AWESOME when boiled down with the vodka.
When my grandad heard that I was using so much vodka in the recipe, he got a bit worried, but ended up loving it.
Makes way more than five servings.
I divied up the pasta with about two cups for each of us (grandad, granmum and I) and still had alot for leftovers. Grandad said that I gave him too much ... but couldn't stop eating it because it was so good!3 of 3 found this review helpful.
