This is a recipe that I have been making for years. It's always a favorite. You can tweak the ingredients to your own tastes if you so choose. My brother likes to add minced onions to the saute. It's quick, it's easy & tastes great!
Ingredients:
8 ounces angel hair pasta
1/2 lb bacon
1 (6 1/2 ounce) packet tuna in water, may use canned tuna drained
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
black pepper
parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Fry the bacon in a pan. When bacon is done, drain on papertowels.
2. Keep the bacon grease in the pan. (Note: You can reduce the amount of bacon grease you use if you so choose, just keep enough so it doesn't get dry).
3. Put the tuna and garlic in the pan with the bacon grease and heat over medium heat - stirring occasionally. Do this for approximately 5 minutes.
4. Season with black pepper (optional).
5. Crumble the bacon strips and place back in the pan with the tuna & garlic.
6. Heat for another minute or two.
7. Boil your angel hair pasta.
8. When pasta is done put into a large bowl.
9. Transfer your bacon & tuna mixture from the pan into the bowl of pasta.
10. Toss all ingredients to incorporate all the flavors.
11. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve.
