"BLT" Pasta

Recipe Photo

"Why this recipe works:When developing our recipe for "BLT" Pasta, we found that baby spinach and arugula worked equally instead of using lettuce. Rather than wasting time dicing whole tomatoes, we found that halved cherry tomatoes were the ideal size for this recipe. Cooking the onions in some fat reserved from cooking the bacon added smoky flavor to our “BLT" Pasta...."
