In just 35 minutes, you’ll have a dish that’s as comforting as a warm hug. Cook penne pasta until it’s al dente (or until Al needs a dentist). Brown the Italian sausage, then set it aside. Sauté shallots and garlic until soft, then mix in the pasta, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese until the sauce thickens. Add the sausage back in, season with salt and pepper, and garnish with parsley and cherry tomatoes. Serve up this creamy, dreamy pasta and enjoy!
