    This is one of our favorite recipes and has been for years. Now that we are vegan, we need to experiment and see if this can still be as good!

    This is hands down one of the top 3 meals for my husband and I. The flavor is wonderful, and wakes up your entire mouth.

    We make it just as it instructs, however I do cook 1lb of chicken breast, cut into thin strips, in a skillet along with some EVOO, minced garlic, additional basil, salt and pepper. Then add it into the sauce. And for the record, I loved that the sauce was on the thinner side, it was great to soak up with some bread, and gave me an excuse to grab some seconds.

    I was not expecting this recipe to go over all that well, but was happily surprised that my very carnivorous boyfriend was totally satisfied with this dish. I have been trying to reduce the amount of meat in our diets and he is generally NOT thrilled with that idea, but I made this recipe as written with a salad and some crusty garlic bread and he not only ate it, but went back for seconds. He even ate the leftovers the next day - a sure sign that he really liked it!

    Personally, I liked it but thought it was better the next day as the sauce does come out a bit thin - next time I will reduce the amount of liquid as the other reviews suggest.

    We thought this was very good. After reading the other review I only used 1/2 cup vodka and 1/2 cup chicken stock and 15 oz can tomatoes. Added some portabello mushrooms and a chopped leek and some shredded mozzarella, provolone, romano and parmesan cheese.

    I've made this twice, both times to rave reviews. Everyone from kids to adults love this dish. I cut back the chicken stock to 3/4's of a cup, and I use a 28 oz. can of crushed tomatoes instead of the 32 oz. can specified in the recipe. I cook the vodka down longer than 2-3 minutes - takes about 5 minutes to reduce it the proper amount. And then I cook the actual sauce for about 20-25 minutes to thicken it a bit. I love to add browned Italian sausage to the sauce as well. Top with freshly grated Parmesan and you're set!

    Love it! I didn't know what to expect the first time I made it but it is amazing. The entire family loves it.

    This is me and my husband's all-time favorite meal. The flavor is amazing and the recipe is easy. I make this every year for Valentine's Day. You MUST try this recipe, it will likely become one of your favorite pasta dishes! If I could give this recipe 6 stars I would. *Let the sauce simmer much longer than the recipe states before adding the cream and basil*

    I'm a huge pasta fan, and Trader Joe's vodka sauce is a go-to ingredient in our household, so I had really high expectations of this recipe. Unfortunately, it didn't quite deliver. After reading other people's reviews, I'm sure there are tweaks I could make if I were to cook it again that would significantly improve it. But I'd rather just use another recipe from Giada or Ina. Side note: most cans of crushed tomatoes come in 28-ounce cans, which I found entirely sufficient - no reason to buy an extra can.
