How to Make Bacon N Veggie Pasta
- Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, combine vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, salt, pepper, broccoli, and carrots. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until broccoli and carrots are tender.
- While vegetables simmer, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on paper towels, reserving 1 tablespoon bacon grease.
- In the same skillet, add olive oil. Saute onion, green pepper, and garlic in the bacon grease until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the sauteed vegetables to the saucepan with the cooked broccoli and carrots. Stir to combine.
- Add the cooked pasta to the vegetable mixture and toss to coat.
- Top with crispy bacon and grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
