Holy smokes, Batman! This was GOOOOOOOOD!!!


OK - This was possibly one of the recipes I have enjoyed the most so far. Very tasty, great texture, very easy! Pasta Carbonara -


1/2 pound fettuccine, uncooked

4 slices bacon, chopped

4 oz Neufchatel cheese, cubed

1 cup frozen peas

3/4 cup milk

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

1/2 tsp garlic powder


Cook fettuccine as directed on package. Meanwhile, cook bacon in large skillet until crisp. Remove bacon from skillet with slotted spoon, reserving 2 Tbsp drippings in skillet. Drain bacon on paper towels. Adde remaining ingredients to reserved dippings; cook on low heat until cream cheese is melted and mixture is well blended and heated through. Drain fettuccine, place in large bowl. Add cream cheese sauce and bacon; mix lightly.


This recipe was so tasty, even though I personally do not like peas.. I will probably substitute frozen spinach the next time I make it. As you can see, I served with steamed broccoli but even still we ended up with no leftovers!
