No name pasta dish
Ok, so it may have a name but its original to me.
6 strips unflavored bacon DICED <---forgot that part
1/2 bag Fresh baby spinach (I use the bag stuff from Walmart)
1 medium tomato diced
Rosemary
Basil
Minced garlic approx 2 cloves
Salt
Black pepper
1 1/2 tsp Crushed red pepper
Pasta of your choosing. I prefer spaghetti or penne.
I didn't add amounts for the basil or rosemary because I like both alot an some people don't. I used roughly 2 tablespoon o rosemary and 3-4 of basil.
Cook pasta till almost done. While pasta is cooking, cook bacon till almost crisp then drain roughly 2/3 of the grease. Add garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes. Then add tomato to pan. Allow to cook 3-4 minutes then add roughly 1/4 cup of water from the pasta. Add 1/2 the spinach to pan and allow to wilt then toss to incorporate. Repeat with the remainder of the spinach and more water if necessary. Add basil and rosemary and allow to simmer for 5 minutes. Add pasta and a little water toss and let simmer 5 more minutes. Serve with a little Parmesan on top. Salt and pepper to taste. Hopefully someone try's this and tells me it doesn't suck. Enjoy.
