Linguine With Broccoli, Peas, Ricotta and Bacon image

Found this recipe in the Woman's Day magazine, Sept 23. It is from a cook called the Seasonal Kitchen by Serge Dansereau. Linguine is rather similar to fettuccine and I would imagine any long pasta would work well. I've made this and it is delicious, quick and easy. The recipe says that basil can be swopped for parsley, but I think the basil adds another dimension to the recipe that parsley wouldn't. The left-overs, reheated the next day, taste just as nice as when first made. A keeper for sure.

Time 19m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

175 g bacon, rindless
400 g linguine
broccoli, 1 head
1 cup peas, fresh (I used frozen)
20 g butter
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 tablespoon basil, chopped

Steps:

  • Fry the bacon over a medium heat until crispy and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Bring to boil one medium saucepan and one large saucepan of salted water.
  • Put the linguine into the large saucepan and swirl the water to ensure it does not stick together. When the pasta is almost cooked plunge the broccoli and peas into the other saucepan of boiling water.
  • Drain the pasta and return to the large pan with the butter. Drain the broccoli and peas well and add to the pasta with the ricotta, bacon and basil. Toss gently, transfer to four warm bowls and serve immediately.

This recipe is a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some garlic and chili flakes next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover broccoli and peas. I also added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and it was a great way to get my kids to eat their vegetables.

I'm not a big fan of ricotta cheese, so I substituted it with goat cheese. It was delicious!

I'm not a big fan of ricotta cheese, so I substituted it with cottage cheese. It worked out great!
