PASTA WITH PANCETTA AND TOMATO SAUCE - GIADA DE LAURENTIIS
I saw Food Network's Giada make this simple and quick to put together dish and had to make it. I loved it! Sometimes, I substitute lean ham or canadian bacon for the panchetta.

- Add the onion and saute till tender for 5 minutes. Season with salt.
- Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and saute until fragrant for about 30 seconds.
- Stir in the tomato puree.
- Simmer uncovered over medium-low heat until the sauce thickens slightly and the flavors blend, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, boil the pasta according to directions.
- Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
- Toss the linguine with the sauce in the skillet, adding some of the reserved cooking liquid until the pasta is moist but being careful not to dilute the sauce.
- Toss with the cheese.
