This has been a favorite with family and friends. This was how my Italian great grandmother made it and passed down. I always double the recipe because everyone wants left overs. We have it with salad and garlic bread

TOMATO CREAM SAUCE WITH RIGATONI



Tomato Cream Sauce With Rigatoni image

I've tried several tomato cream sauce recipes. Some with sausage, some with chicken and some with shrimp. All very good but this one is my favorite. A very large recipe. Easily enough sauce for 3 pounds pasta. If you are not feeding an army go ahead and make full sauce recipe anyway and freeze the leftover sauce. It thaws and reheats very nicely. I typically buy the large can of San Marzano tomatoes at Costco. It's so much cheaper. I really think there is a difference in taste with the San Marzano. Just be sure to buy tomatoes that are packed in puree. Makes the sauce even richer. Adjust the seasonings as you like. I seem to make spicier every time I make by adding more garlic, and red pepper. So good!
