My aunt is in town for the week to lend a hand so I had time to do a little cooking and a blog post!
What You'll Need:
1 pound tagliatelle or pasta of your choice
12 bacon slices, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
¼ teaspoon dried, crushed red pepper
3 cups fresh spinach
1 cup thinly sliced fresh basil leaves
¼ cup dry white wine
¼ cup green onions
1 cup fresh, grated parmesan
1 cup sliced zucchini
1 cup chopped red bell pepper
What You'll Do:
• Cook and drain pasta
• Cook bacon in a large skillet until crisp and transfer to paper towel
• Pour off all but 3 tablespoons of the bacon drippings
• Add tomatoes, crushed red pepper, and any extra veggies
• Sauté about 2 minutes
• Add arugula/spinach, green onions, half the basil and bacon
• Sauté another 2 more minutes or until arugula/spinach and basil wilt
• Add wine and simmer
• Add pasta to sauce and toss to coat
• Mix in ¾ cup parmesan and remaining basil and cook until the cheese
melts (about 2 minutes)
• Season with salt and pepper
• Serve with the remaining Parmesan cheese
