Re: Penne w/ Sausage Tri-Colored Peppers in Tomato Cream Sauce
You might try adding some cream and some half and half. I've never done it though and so wouldn't be able to vouch for the results. My guess is that it might still be good but you'd compromise some of the richness in flavor.
I'd rather eat a little less of a dish or have it less frequently than compromise rich ingredients like cream and butter. There is nothing wrong with a little cream for the health conscious just don't eat dishes with cream sauces everyday. Most things are good in moderation.
If you're concerned that the dish sounds too heavy, it's not. The sauce while it does contain quite a bit of fat feels light not heavy.
If you try out the recipe with a combo of cream and half and half, let me know how it turns out.
