Saute until all the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, basil, and bay leaves and reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for 1 hour or until thick.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for ripe tomatoes, sweet pancetta, and a creamy, flavorful cheese.
- Cook the pancetta until it's crispy: This will help to render out the fat and give the pancetta a delicious, smoky flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the tomatoes: If you add too many tomatoes to the pan at once, they will steam instead of sautéing. Cook the tomatoes in batches if necessary.
- Simmer the sauce for at least 15 minutes: This will help to develop the flavors and thicken the sauce.
- Use a good quality pasta: A high-quality pasta will hold its shape and texture when cooked, and it will absorb the sauce better.
- Serve the pasta immediately: Pasta is best eaten fresh, so serve it as soon as it's cooked.

Penne with pancetta and tomato cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight dinner.
