Sammie's Bacon Tomato Pasta image

Something my DD created while trying to figure out what to have for supper. We had some small tomatoes to use up and some thick sliced bacon. The leftovers work well for a cold pasta salad too. Just add some Miracle Whip and more chunks of cheese.

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb thick-sliced bacon
1 pint grape tomatoes
2 lbs small shell pasta
1/4 cup butter
1/2 lb colby cheese, small chunks
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Boil pasta in salted water to taste. We like al dente. Drain. Add butter and stir to keep pasta from sticking.
  • Cut tomatoes in half and gently squeeze out the seeds.
  • Cook bacon to half crisp; drain off grease. Crumble bacon into small pieces. Add tomatoes, bacon, and cheese to pasta. Stir in a small teaspoon of bacon grease.
  • Stir to mix well, the cheese will melt naturally. Salt & Pepper to taste.
