Creamy Pasta with Bacon and Onion
Do you need a quick weeknight meal? This is one of our family’s favorites. Of course, who doesn’t like pasta? One great thing about this is that it doesn’t matter what kind of noodle you have in your pantry. Just about any kind will work. I love the cork screw, cellantani as in the picture.
This recipe is simple – just a little chopping and grating. You could do the chopping ahead of time and whip it all together in about 15 minutes.
