Spaghetti with Spinach and Bacon

I am looking forward to ST. PATRICK'S DAY tomorrow.
To get into the mood I prepared that dish.
For so many years I celebrated this Irish holiday with my parents, my friends and very often with my coworkers. It started small and then went into a big event with lots of partissipants.
Now I just do it for myself.


It is fun to think about recipes and to check the amount of green foodcolouring in the house.
Since I found Pandanextract, getting something green is no longer a huge problem.
I needed some cream spinach for my dish tomorrow but there were only large packages of my favourite kind. So half of it went into the pasta dish today.


recipe:
150 g spaghetti plat
225 g frozen spinach with cream
3 slices of smoked bacon
50 g grated Parmesan
1 tbsp creme fraiche
nutmeg
salt and pepper
Fresh basil

Cook the pasta al dente.
The spinach is in frozen chunks and can be measured very easily. I took half of the 450 g package and added the creme fraiche and put it into the microwave until heaten up.
Cut the bacon into 1 inch pieces and brown it in a pan. Drain on kitchen paper. Pour the spinach in the same pan and add fresh grated nutmeg. Add the bacon and the fresh cooked pasta. Topped with cheese and basil.
