Pasta With Bacon, Mushroom & Caramelised Onions image

I saw this on Better Homes & Gardens TV show, then in a magazine. It's become a family favorite - so light and yet so tasty! The "sauce" freezes well and reheats easily.

I'm a vegetarian so I omitted the bacon and it was still delicious.

I used whole wheat pasta instead of regular pasta and it was still really good.

I added a little bit of red pepper flakes to the sauce for a little extra kick. It was delicious!

I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms, but I loved them in this dish. They were cooked perfectly and added a nice earthy flavor.

I love how easy this recipe is to make. It's perfect for a weeknight meal when I'm short on time. And the leftovers are just as good the next day.

This recipe was a hit! The combination of bacon, mushroom, and caramelized onions was divine. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente, and the sauce was rich and flavorful.
