Cómo preparar Bacon Bow Tie Pasta
- Cook 1 pound bow tie pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.
- While pasta cooks, cook 6 slices bacon until crisp. Drain well on paper towels and crumble.
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, beat together 4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup low-fat milk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Microwave the cream cheese mixture on high for 2-3 minutes, or until heated through, whisking every 30 seconds to prevent scorching.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Add the cooked pasta to the cream cheese sauce. Toss gently to coat. If the sauce is too thick, add a little reserved pasta water to achieve desired consistency.
- Top with the crumbled bacon and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy!
