I'm not usually a fan of leek, but I really enjoyed this pasta dish. The leek was cooked perfectly and it had a mild flavor that complemented the other ingredients.

This pasta dish is a great way to use up leftover leek. I had some leftover leek from a soup I made earlier in the week, and this was the perfect way to use it up.

This pasta dish is a great way to sneak in some vegetables for picky eaters. The leek and bacon are hidden in the creamy sauce, so kids won't even notice they're eating them.

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted the bacon with mushrooms. The dish was still very flavorful and delicious. The creamy sauce was the perfect complement to the mushrooms and leeks.
