Recipe for penne pasta with chorizo in creamy tomato sauce

A delicious recipe for a lovely pasta dish made on penne with chorizo and drenched in a delicious and creamy tomato sauce with cooking cream. This is a great Italian style pasta dinner with lots of flavor so don’t be fooled by how easy it is to make - it tastes awesome! We have a weakness for Italian food, so it’s no wonder we love visiting Italy whose cities like Rome are filled with the most amazing eateries offering all kinds of pizzas and pastas. On our last visit to Rome we got this pasta with chorizo and ever since that experience we’ve wanted to see if we could recreate the recipe. I’d say we’ve come pretty darn close with this one!
