How to Make St Louis Blues Pasta

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. While pasta cooks, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon, crumble, and set aside, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon grease in the skillet.
  3. Add minced garlic and chopped onion to the skillet with the bacon grease. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, until softened.
  4. Season with salt.
  5. Add chopped collard greens to the skillet and stir to coat with the bacon grease.
  6. Pour in chicken broth, bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, or until collard greens are tender but not mushy.
  7. Stir in apple cider vinegar and hot pepper sauce.
  8. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to combine with the collard greens and pan juices.
  9. Sprinkle with crumbled bacon and grated Parmesan cheese.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy!
