Bacon-Mushrooms Baked Penne

Posted by Dexie

Sometimes nixing chicken or ground beef combined with baked pasta is a good idea. Use bacon instead :) .

INGREDIENTS
finely chopped 2 cloves garlic
finely chopped 1small onion
5 strips of bacon, finely chopped
5-6 button mushrooms, sliced thinly
1 can of spaghetti sauce
2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
dried oregano for seasoning

I box of penne pasta, cooked accordingly

Cook the pasta, drain and set aside.

Brown bacon in a non-stick skillet, add garlic and onions. When cooked, add the mushrooms. Cook for about a minute, then season with dried oregano. Stir in the spaghetti sauce. Let it simmer for about 3-5 minutes or so.

Pour the sauce over the penne. Stir in 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. Transfer the whole thing on a baking pan. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese. Bake in the over for 15-20 minutes.
