You guysssss!!! This Vodka Sauce was amazing! I have always been a big fan of vodka sauce and the homemade version is always better than a $10 store bought jar ❤ Plus I got to use the leftover vodka for martinis 😉
And make sure you chose a Vegan wine! You can find the entire list here
I love Tito’s vodka because it is also Gluten Free!
This is definitely a must try recipe . . . quick, easy, and delicious ❤
