Pasta dish I made up

This is another one I made up myself in my bachelor days.

Cut up some vegetables into small pieces. I found the best combination to be:

  • Celery (1 stick per person)
  • Red bell pepper (1/4 per person)
  • Carrot (1 per person)
  • Onion (1/2 per person)

Add some chopped garlic if you like.

Slice up some bacon as in yesterday's recipe and cook it with the vegetables. The vegetables will fry nicely in the fat from the bacon.

Cook some pasta (I like the twisty ones), drain it and add some sort of pre-made tomato-y sauce. I found one in the supermarket that just said "made with Meat" (no specific animals species were mentioned) so I used that for amusement's sake and it worked pretty well.

Mix the pasta and the sauce together and then dump that into the saucepan with the vegetables and bacon. Turn the heat right up and keep stirring it until the runniness disappears and it acquires a more gloopy consistency (technical term).

Plate it up and eat it with a nice tall glass of cold milk.
