Paula knows great pasta, and she insisted we share her recipe for one of her favorites: Paula’s Favorite Polish Pasta! This pasta takes a very different approach to your traditional noodle dish. The buttery pasta is mixed with tender, sweet cabbage and smoky, savory kielbasa for that true Polish feeling, and it’s all brought together in a rich buttery sauce. Doesn’t get much better than that! Thank Paula’s Favorite Polish Pasta for a dinner you won’t soon forget!
