Tomato, Bacon and Onion Fettuccine
"Fast and really good. On the table in under 30 minutes. Original recipe calls for fresh tomatoes, but I actually prefer to use canned, diced ones. I like to add a little of the juice into the pasta when I toss it to keep it moist."

Quick and easy! I used pepper bacon for a little heat and added some sauteed zucchini to make it a one-dish meal. I also added fresh tomatoes from the local farmer's market - lovely. Thanks for sharing! -

I am a mom to 2 boys, ages 11 and 6. My youngest is a cancer survivor, so we enjoy each day given to us! You never know what can happen in your life! I have been in the loan business for over 10 years and I love it. Unfortunately, this economy has put a wrench into my awesome career. After a couple layoffs, I decided I need to do something else for awhile. I am now selling advertising, and it's different! I am thankful to have a job, so can't complain much! I love to cook. I can spend a whole Sunday in the kitchen just cooking away. I love trying new recipes (my boyfriend hates it. Lol. He likes what he likes and would be fine never trying anything new.) I never bake. I think it's because I don't measure. I am a throw-in-the-ingredients until they taste good kind of girl. I LOVE this site(actually, I am addicted to it) and am enjoying finding new things to make everyday!
