- Cook 1 pound orecchiette pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.

- Add 4 cloves minced garlic and sauté for another 2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Add 10 ounces (about 5 cups) of fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 3-5 minutes.
- Crumble the cooked bacon and add it back to the spinach mixture.
- Stir in 1/4 cup of pasta water to create a light sauce.
- Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss to combine. Add more pasta water if needed to achieve desired consistency.
- Serve immediately, topped with grated Parmesan cheese (optional).
