Ingredients

This came to mind while I was working on another recipe, it works for me.

Spinach And Bacon Pasta

1/4 to 1/2 lb bacon (Peppered bacon or any you like will work) Pancetta, Italian bacon is also good). Drain grease.

1/2 lb. fresh spinach ( variation 1 box frozen chopped spinach, well drained; can work)

1 clove garlic chopped

2 tbs. chopped onion

1/2 cup butter or margarine

8 ozs. ( 5 1/2 to 6 cups ) of egg noodles, bow tie pasta or a similar noodle of your choice.

1/2 cup heavy cream ( called whipping cream in stores)

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

pepper, coarse ground if desired

Directions

Fry Bacon til crisp. You can chop it or use a food processor. it needs to be in large crumbles.

Remove and discard tough stems from spinach; tear or coarsely chop leaves. In a pan, cook

Directions:

garlic and onion in half the butter until golden (don't over cook garlic it will get bitter). Add spinach; and cover and cook til just wilted. Meanwhile, cook noodles as directed on package;

drain and mix with remaining butter. Then toss with cream,cheese, spinach and bacon. let guest add their own pepper. This makes about 3 to 4 servings

You can also sprinkle with a little of Parmesan or a shredded mozzarella after plating the food.

Some nice garlic cheese bread goes well and a nice salad. Maybe Stephanie's tomato, basil, artichoke salad would be an option.

Stephanie's Salad is made out of 1 can sliced artichokes, 6 or 8 Roma tomatoes sliced in quarters , a tbs. dried chopped basil and a bottle of your favorite Italian dressing.
