Pink-sauce—really? Yep, it’s a thing—cooked penne tossed with equal parts red marinara sauce and white alfredo sauce, which combine to make—you got it—a pink-hued sauce that blends tanginess and creaminess. “As simple as the combination sounds, it is mind-blowingly delicious,” Chef DeLucie says. He ups the flavor factor even more a dose of crushed red pepper heat, then adds a garnish of savory Grana Padano cheese and an shower of fresh basil.
