Wordless Wednesday 26 February

The grass is drying out but still the weeds are growing and flowering.  Pity then we had to buy in water for our tanks this week.

Super Easy Pasta Dish

I have this pasta meal that is a go too when I have very little time.  I have been asked for this recipe and since I invented in a rush one day it is less than perfect.  Needless to say my family love this meal.

Egg Fettuchini with tomato, bacon and capsicum (or vege of choice)

Ingredients

10 rashers of chicken bacon
1 medium onion diced
1 capsicum diced
1 400 g of chopped tinned tomatoes
fresh basil to taste -  I use about 3/4 cup of basil
salt and pepper
500g egg tagliatelle

Method

1.  Cook tagliatelle according to packaging

2.  At the same time, in a saucepan, put  bacon and diced onion in a heated saucepan.  Cook for about 1 minute or until the onion is transparent and bacon is just cooked.

3.  Add to the saucepan the capsicum, tomatoes, basil and seasoning to taste.  Cook until it is all heated through.

4.  Take the saucepan off the heat and add the pasta to the sauce in the saucepan.

It is best served immediately.

This recipe serves 2 adults and 2 children.


(On this day I only had yellow capsicum left in the fridge so dinner was not so colourful but still tasted great.)
