Zucchini-Bacon Pasta Toss image

A quick, savory side dish that includes veggies and starch in one with enough bacon and cheese that it may make a meat unnecessary. Its healthier cooked in olive oil but if you want to indulge substitute bacon grease. Prep time does not include cooking the bacon.

Time 25m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb rotini pasta or 1 lb bow tie pasta, cooked according to package directions
1 -2 large onion, coarsely chopped
3 -4 zucchini (~8 inch) or 2 zucchini and 2 yellow squash, coarsely chopped
1/4-1/2 lb bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup shredded asiago cheese, divided
1/3-1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a very large skillet (I like to use my cast iron chicken fryer), and begin to saute onion on medium-high heat.
  • When onion is half cooked add squash and saute, stirring frequently until onion is browned and squash is nearly cooked.
  • Add bacon, Parmesan, and black pepper. Cover and let rest 3-5 minutes to soften cheese.
  • Toss with hot pasta and 1/4 cup Asiago cheese. Turn into serving dish. Top with remaining Asiago Cheese.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover zucchini. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.
