I saw this on Better Homes & Gardens TV show, then in a magazine. It's become a family favorite - so light and yet so tasty! The sauce freezes well and reheats easily.
Ingredients:
250 g bacon, pieces
250 g sliced mushrooms
2 red onions, cut in half & sliced
minced garlic (to taste)
thyme
spaghetti (or any of the long ribbon style pastas)
crumbly cheese (feta, ploughmans cheddar, anything that crumbles nicely)
butter
Directions:
1. In a large frypan, fry the bacon, then set aside.
2. Melt butter in the same pan and then cook the onions until they have caramelised.
3. Add the mushrooms, garlic and thyme/herbs and the bacon again and reduce the heat to low.
4. Cook your pasta and then, using tongs or a spathetti spoon, add it to the pan with the bacon mixture in it. Do not drain as the liquid will help moisten the whole.
5. Serve with the cheese crumbled over the top.
