Pasta With Peas And Bacon

Directions

1. Place tortellini in the pot of boiling water.
2. In a large skillet, cook the bacon till crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon, place on a paper towel to drain. Pour out all the bacon grease except for 1 Tbsp.. In the same skillet place the onion and cook for 2 min, or possibly till golden brown. Pour in the cream, and reduce till lightly thickened.
3. Remove the pasta from the water when it is al dente, about 8 min. Drain and add in the pasta to the cream mix. Add in bacon back to the pan along with the peas and cheese. Reduce for 1 minute. Toss and adjust the seasonings. Spoon into a large pasta bowl and serve. Garnish with additional grated Parmesan cheese and minced parsley if you like.
