Being Tandy Tuesday pasta day, I am presenting a dish which is an amalgamation of two other recipes you can find on my blog. Clearly, bacon, chorizo, mushrooms and tomatoes are ingredients I love to cook with, and I suppose one day I will have to put all the pasta recipes into a cook book! Today I have made pasta with bacon and chorizo.

Pasta with Bacon, Chorizo, Mushrooms and Tomatoes
Ingredients
- pasta of your choice
- 4 rashers bacon sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 chorizo sausage sliced
- 100 g mushrooms sliced
- 100 g tomatoes chopped
- 1 tablespoon crème fraîche
- Parmesan for garnishing
Instructions
- start by getting your pasta water on the boil, and cooking your pasta
- fry the bacon in a dry pan until crispy
- add the olive oil and the sausages
- when the sausages are cooked add the mushrooms
- as soon as they have soaked up all the liquid in the pan add the tomatoes

- you may need to loosen the sauce with some of the pasta water
- drain the pasta and add to the sauce
- grate over some Parmesan cheese and serve

Ours is going to be chicken, green olives, lemon, green pepper and onion. And I am using pasta rice for a change.
Happy Tuesday.
