Things You'll Need:
- 1 lb. box penne macaroni
- 1 28 oz. can whole peeled imported Italian tomatoes
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
- large casserole dish

- 1 cup heavy cream or whipping cream
- grated romano cheese

- 2 Tbs extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbs onion powder or 1 small onion, diced
- Large skillet

Add onions or onion powder. Saute until light brown.
-
Step 4
Blend tomatoes in blender. Add to skillet. Stir.
