Penne Rosa Noodles and Company Recipe

Penne Rosa Noodles and Company Recipe

One thing I miss about living in Northern Virginia is having lunch with my girlfriends at Noodles and Company. My “go to” dish was my favorite, their Penne Rosa. In the past 6 years of being gone, I think we have only tried to replicate this dish once.

Penne Rosa: Spicy tomato cream sauce, penne pasta, mushrooms, tomato, spinach and wine, Parmesan or feta

I wish that someone would open a restaurant here in Las Vegas {any takers?}. Hint… hint…

Right now here is the recipe that I am using based on memory. Hopefully one day I will be able to visit California or Utah to bring some back home to do a side-by-side taste test.
