Ingredients

6-8 Strips of Bacon Chopped

1/2 Onion Chopped

1Tbsp Minced jar Garlic

2C or more Finely grated Parmesan cheese, don’t use prepared cheese, it won’t melt and make the sauce correctly!

1/2 C Cream or Half n Half, or if you have pasta water use until a creamy sauce consistency

Leftover Pasta, at least 2-3 cups, or freshly cooked spaghetti pasta

Fresh or dried Parsley or Basil

Directions

Saute Bacon until crisp and onion till translucent

Add Garlic and incorporate

Add Cheese a little at a time let melt and mix well before adding more, once all the cheese is melted

Add either Cream, Half n half, or pasta water a little at a time string constantly, and keep adding as the sauce thickens. The sauce needs to emulsify…..

DON’T STOP STIRING!!! It is essential to make a creamy sauce that doesn’t separate

Once you have a creamy sauce add the pasta and mix well

Cover and let set for about 10 mins.

Serve with parsley or basil for garnish

Warm Garlic Bread is wonderful with this dish!

Enjoy!
