How to make Creamy Smoked Bacon Pasta at home?
Fill a medium pot 1/3 full with water. Place the pot on a medium-hot stovetop.
When the water in the pot boils, add a little olive oil to the pot and add half a teaspoon of salt.
Pour the pasta into the pot. For two servings of this pasta, we use 2 medium-sized handfuls of pasta.
You can choose any kind of pasta.
Cook the pasta for the time indicated by the manufacturer on the package. We boil the pasta for about 12-14 minutes, until it becomes soft enough, but not too watery,
Take a medium sized white onion. Peel the onion and cut it in half. Chop the onion into small cubes on a food cutting board.
Take 3 small cloves of garlic, peel them and cut them into small cubes on a food cutting board.
Take 6-7 slices of smoked ham. Cut the ham slices into strips. Set the ham aside, we will use it later.
Place a pan on a medium-hot stovetop. When the pan is hot, add a little olive oil. Add chopped onions and garlic to the pan.
Fry the onions and garlic in a pan for 3-4 minutes on medium heat until they soften and acquire a yellowish hue.
Add the strips of smoked ham to the pan.
Fry the ham in the pan for about 4 minutes, until it is slightly browned.
Pour 1/2 cup cream into the pan.
Sauté the ham in the cream for another 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly.
Meanwhile, the pasta will be cooked.
Drain the water from the pot with the pasta.
Add the pasta to the pan. Mix everything well. Sauté the pasta and the rest of the ingredients in a pan for 2-3 minutes.
Put the pasta with the remaining ingredients on a plate. Sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top of the pasta.
That's how we made a particularly tasty and rich pasta.

When making Creamy Smoked Bacon Pasta, you may have the following questions:
Is Creamy Smoked Bacon Pasta Healthy?
This Creamy Smoked Bacon Pasta is not the healthiest dish because we use high fat foods like cream, olive oil and smoked ham. If you want to make this pasta healthier, you can use Greek yogurt instead of cream. Also, choose a whole grain pasta that has more fiber. Whole grain pasta boosts your metabolism and can help you lose weight.
How long does Creamy Smoked Bacon Pasta last?
This pasta is not long lasting because we use cream to make it. For this reason, we recommend eating this pasta freshly made, and if you do not eat it all at once, keep the pasta in the refrigerator for no longer than one day after making it. Be sure to warm the pasta in a pan or microwave before eating. Warmed pasta will be tastier.
Is Creamy Smoked Bacon Pasta good for weight loss?
This Creamy Smoked Bacon Pasta is not suitable for dieters as it is high in calories. If you want a pasta recipe that is suitable for slimming, we suggest choosing Creamy Avocado And Spinach Pasta Recipe (just make it without using cream and replace white flour pasta with whole grain pasta).
Can Creamy Smoked Bacon Pasta be eaten the next day?
You can eat this Creamy Avocado And Spinach Pasta the next day. Just to make the pasta tastier, reheat it before eating. We do not recommend eating this pasta if it has been in the refrigerator for more than one day.
