What if you like pasta with red pepper sauce, but don't have the time to roast the peppers on account of your soul-deadening job and its crushing billable hour requirements?


If someone tells you to wait for the peppers to cool, and then "slip the skins off and get rid of the stems and seeds," well, he or she probably works for the city.


Here’s an alternative, without all of that red-pepper-roasting bullshit.

Ingredients

Instructions

1. In a heavy sauce pan, combined tomatoes (with juice), cream, tarragon, garlic, and salt to taste.
2. Bring to boil, break up tomatoes. Simmer, stirring occasionally for 25-30 minutes.
3. Pour over penne. Open a beer. Turn on "The Simpsons" at 10pm (central time). Eat alone. Repeat for a thousand years.
