1 pinch cinnamon
salt
pepper
1/2 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 vegetable bouillon cube
1 small onion
Directions:
1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add the penne and cook for 10 minutes or until tender but still firm to taste.
2. In the meantime, finely slice the onion and cook in a small pot with some olive oil or butter. Heat a 1/2 cup of water, add in the vegetable bouillon. Once the onion is properly cooked (should be tender), add everything else in, including the bouillon - salt and pepper to taste. Stir the sauce frequently over low heat, should turn into a nice even mixture.
3. Once the pasta is finished cooking, drain and add to the sauce. Stir a few times, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let set for 5 to 10 minutes.
