Whip up a flavorful pasta dish with bacon and colorful veggies for a quick and delicious meal.
Ingredients:
  • 400g fettuccine
  • 18.20 gm olive oil
  • 6 (about 300g) yellow squash, thinly sliced
  • 3 (about 300g) zucchini, ends trimmed, thinly sliced
  • 4 bacon rashers, rind removed, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 160ml (2/3 cup) thickened cream
  • 82.50 ml shredded fresh basil
Instructions:
  • Prepare the pasta in a generously salted pot of boiling water according to the package instructions until it is perfectly al dente. Then, drain the pasta and return it to the pot.
  • Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook squash, zucchini, bacon, and garlic, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes until bacon is golden and vegetables are tender. Pour in cream and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Season with pepper.
  • Combine the squash mixture and fresh basil with the pasta, toss until fully mixed, then generously season with black pepper before serving.
