Ingredients

  • 1 pound bacon
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic or 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 12 ounces frozen peas
  • 16 ounces farfalle pasta cooked al dente
  • ½ cup pasta water
  • 16 ounces alfredo sauce
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Either use a large oven proof sauté pan (at least 3.5 quarts) or grease a 9x13-inch pan.
  • Cut the bacon into small strips and cook until crisp in a large sauté pan. Drain most of the grease.
  • Add the onion, peas and garlic to the pan. Cook over medium heat until the onions are translucent.
  • Add in the cooked pasta, alfredo sauce, milk, and pasta water. If using jarred sauce, use the pasta water or milk to clean the jar.
  • Stir until the pasta is coated in sauce and the peas and bacon are distributed throughout. (If using a separate casserole dish to bake, go ahead and transfer it now.) Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and lightly browned. Let sit for a minute or two and then enjoy.
