Orecchiette with Sausage and Broccoli

Sometimes it seems impossible to make a meal that pleases the whole family. What one happily eats, another suddenly isn't "in the mood for." But every once in a while, I come across a recipe that everyone looks forward to, like this pasta with Italian sausage and broccoli. Not only is it quick and easy to make—25 minutes tops—but everyone goes back for seconds, and then some.

Penne alla Vodka

Penne alla vodka is one of those no-food-in-the-house dinners that I make over and over again. The vodka sauce, a bright tomato sauce enriched with heavy cream, comes together in the time it takes to boil the pasta. You won't really taste the vodka; it's simply there to cut the richness of the dish without adding a distinct flavor of its own. (Fun fact: some believe the dish was created by vodka companies to sell more vodka!)

Fettuccine Alfredo

Fettuccine Alfredo is the ultimate comfort pasta. Originally from Rome, the dish started as a simple mix of butter, Parmesan, and pasta, but the American version we know and love takes it up a notch with the addition of cream. Best of all, it's one of the easiest pasta dishes to make, ready in about 30 minutes with just a handful of simple ingredients.
