Baked Penne With Sausage

"This recipe for baked penne pasta combines homemade vodka sauce, with ricotta cheese and crumbled Italian sausage. It’s my go-to pasta casserole to serve friends and family, because it’s easy to make ahead of time and freeze wonderfully!  While everyone loves lasagna, it has a lot of red sauce. After trying a vodka sauce at an Italian restaurant in DC, I really wanted to experiment making it at home. This recipe for baked penne with sausage or penne alla vodka is one of my new favorites that I make over and over again. Pasta casserole recipes are great to take to a friend who is under the weather. The kids always ask for it when they come home and want to take the leftovers home with them. It’s really easy to double this recipe and it makes great leftovers. "
