TAGLIATELLE WITH MUSHROOM, BACON & WALNUT SAUCE
This fast, creamy pasta combines bacon and mushrooms with the unexpected crunch of walnuts. Delicious! Any pasta can be used. Go without the bacon and skip step 3 to make this dish vegetarian- that's what we did & it was yum! I'd suggest perhaps doubling the sauce because we used only half of the pasta stated & found that there wasn't enough sauce to go with it - this *could* be because we used lite thickened cream, I'm not sure. This recipe comes from Australia's 'Delicious' magazine.

Steps:
- Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and set aside.
- Reserve 1 tablespoon bacon grease in the skillet. Add butter and melt over medium heat. Stir in onions and saute until soft and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add mushrooms and toss to thoroughly coat with the butter-onion-garlic mixture. Season with nutmeg and pepper and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Combine chicken broth, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, and cornstarch in a bowl and whisk until well combined. Stir into mushroom mixture, pour in heavy cream, stir in reserved bacon, and simmer until sauce is bubbly and thickened, about 2 minutes.
- Adjust seasoning and serve immediately garnished with chopped parsley.
