- grated parmesan cheese, to serve

We truly enjoyed this dish! My DH loved the kick the red pepper flakes gave it! And anything with bacon is great with me! Will definitely make this again! Made for ZWT4.

I had to make this with low-sodium bacon, which wasn't particularly thick-cut but was still fine (also use no-salt-added tomatoes. I doubled the amount of crushed red pepper flakes. My palate is used to low-salt content, so for me it was great this way. It's the red pepper flakes I think which really make this special.

A very easy and quick pasta dish to make but sorry to say for us it was not a favorite. The smokey flavor of the bacon did not seem to blend well with the tomatoes. I think some fresh herbs would be wonderful in the sauce and round out the flavor a bit better.

This was easy and tastey. I believe it does needs more seasoning like Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Used fire roasted tomatoes and applewood smoked bacon. Also added smoked paprika to add more flavor.
