Mama's Budget beater #4 - Bacon & Cheese Creamy Pasta

in #food7 years ago

Last week Mama showed you three of her favourite budget beaters -
1. Cottage Pie or Shepherds Pie
2. Vegetarian Lentil Moussaka
3. Hearty Beef & Veg Hot Pot with Coke
Today she's going to show you a real speedy Bacon & Cheese Creamy Pasta that the whole family will love.
She's using Bacon but you can omit it if you're vegetarian.

So without further ado, here are the ingredients required for 6 servings, cost ZAR R78:

A little tip from Mama for those who don't know - to peel tomatoes easily, drop them into a bowl of very hot water for a couple of minutes. The skins will just slide off easily.

Sautee sliced onions and crushed garlic in a little oil till it starts to caramelise.

Cook 250g pasta, drain and place into oven dish - Mama divided it into 2 dishes, one will be frozen for another day.

Mama made a medium thick Cheese Sauce with 3 cups Milk, a generous blob of butter, 3 tablespoons Cornflour & about 1 cup grated Cheese.

Mama made this creamy Bacon & Cheese Pasta in no time at all, hastily served Papa Bear before he stole all those crispy bits of Bacon.

Ooooh my donner water my mond nou, verskoon my taal maar ek gaan verseker hierdie een "bookmark".

Dit lyk amazing.

Haha, dankie @vanzyl!

It's lunch time here in my country and that made me hungry, I love everything that has pasta, cheese, bacon, as well as pizza I think you already know this recipe is super simple I liked it and the white sauce let's say it's like a bechamel? I loved this recipe god

You're right @yesslife, it is a Bechamel sauce and a quick & easy pasta dish to put together! I want to try making that patagón (not sure if I'm spelling it right?) that you made your delicious sandwich with.

Lol

Hastily served pappa bear

Looks yummy and super easy. Definitely another one to try out :)

Haha in this house it would be hastily served to me or Soren before we got our hands on the bacon.

Even I'm tempted by those crispy bacon bits :)

Haha @therneau, papa Bear is always hunting for little tidbits, & this really is super easy, thanks so much for your support:)
