04 Dec Easy Pasta Dinner

This pasta dinner is an easy winner.

Is it the bacon? Probably - because really, all things are truly better with bacon. But if real bacon isn't your thing - this recipe is worth the try with either chicken or turkey bacon. Friends, it's time to really put away the BBQ for the season (there is a BBQ season and this isn't it!) and come back into the kitchen for the kind of meal that you can make in 15 minutes, slice a beautiful baguette, pour a rich red wine and share around a table with family or friends. This recipe has been adapted from Bon Apetit's September 2004 magazine.  Enjoy!
