Alfredo for One
Here’s a recipe for all my single friends out there. Just because
you’re cooking for one doesn’t mean you can’t indulge every now and again.
.
2 oz Penne Pasta (I like
Dreamfields)
1 TB butter
1 clove garlic crushed
1 green onion minced
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/8- cup freshly grated parmesan (or a little more, about a small handful)
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
2 strips bacon (fully cooked and crumbled)
2 basil leaves (cut into tiny ribbons)
diced roma tomato ( a few pieces 1/16 to 1/8 cup)
Cook pasta according to package instructions.
Meanwhile:
In a very small sauce pan melt butter over low heat.
Add in garlic and onion, sauté till soft.
Pour in cream, bring to slow boil stirring continuously for 2 minutes
Reduce heat to low and add Parmesan, stir till melted in.
Add Nutmeg and bacon. Stir.
Add Pasta to sauce toss till covered.
Right before serving toss in basil and garnish with the diced roma tomatoes.
WhaLaa, Delish! Add the remaining diced tomato to a nice green salad
and enjoy.
