Pasta With Vodka Cream Sauce & Ricotta

Sauce
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 bulb garlic, diced
3 Tbsp. Olive Oil
1 large can tomato sauce
1 c. flavorless vodka
1 can tomato paste
2 Tbsp. fresh basil, chopped
1 small carton heavy cream

In a sauce pan, heat olive oil. Add onion and garlic and saute until onion is clear. Add tomato sauce, paste, vodka and basil. Simmer on low to medium heat for approximately 1/2 hour (long enough for the alcohol to evaporate). Stir in cream and let simmer another 7 minutes.

Prepared pasta (I like Penne or Farfalle for this)
Baby spinach (uncooked)
1 lb. browned Italian Sausage (I like Hot- can be mixed in with the sauce if you prefer)
Ricotta cheese

Layer on your plate: Pasta, sausage, ricotta, spinach and then sauce. Enjoy!
