PENNE WITH BACON AND ZUCCHINI
This recipe ('penne zucchini e pancetta') is from my Italian aunt and is a family favorite. It can be served as an appetizer or with a few slices of fresh crusty Italian bread and a garden salad as a main. My aunt never wrote her recipes down, but this is how she gave it to me.
