Not a fan....I used Chicken instead of sausage here. I thought the vodka sauce came out wonderfully, but the ricotta cheese that the recipe calls for is way too much! It overpowered the vodka cream sauce flavor. I WILL make the vodka cream sauce again! The casserole was not worth making again. I still love ya though, Emeril!

I relied on this recipe solely for the vodka sauce. I wanted a make-ahead vodka sauce that wasn't overly involved, like many other recipes I've tried. Since I wasn't doing the casserole (I served the sauce over spinach-and-ricotta filled shells instead, I omitted the sausage, ricotta, etc., and simply made the tomato-and-cream sauce with onions, vodka, and seasonings. (I used a pre-mixed creole seasoning instead of Essence, after realizing the ingredients were nearly identical, and substituted fat-free half-and-half for the cream. The sauce is absolutely delicious, with just the right amount of creaminess and kick, and seems to respond well to any amount of tinkering. I highly recommend it!

This was awesome! It made enough for a casserole for a friend and a smaller one for my family. I subbed half and half and added the basil at the end. So easy. Highly recommended!!!

EASY AND FULL OF FLAVOR! I made a few changes- used white wine and tomato puree instead of the vodka and crushed tomatoes, and used dried basil instead of fresh (cut it by half since it was dried leaves. Turned out awesome and husband loved it.

Delicious! My friend is a vegetarian, so I made it without the sausage. It still tasted amazing!
