BLT Pasta Recipe

"When another summer tomato sandwich just won’t do, try this BLT pasta instead This clever twist on the classic sandwich substitutes spicy arugula for lettuce and in-season cherry tomatoes for heirlooms, which cook in bacon fat and produce a silky, smoky sauce If baby arugula is out of reach, baby spinach, watercress or Swiss chard would work well in its place..."

INGREDIENTS
1 pound paccheri pasta or other tubelike shape, such as penne or rigatoni
8 ounces bacon, diced into 1/2-inch pieces
1 pound cherry tomatoes, halved
Kosher salt and black pepper
5 ounces baby arugula
½ cup grated Pecorino Romano, plus more for serving
Flaky salt, for serving (optional)
