Macaroni with bacon and cheese in a frying pan came to the rescue when I really wanted to eat). I was preparing dinner only for myself, so I boldly used garlic and herbs. My pasta had been cooked an hour earlier. I cooked the cones from durum wheat; I like the pasta to be slightly undercooked. I had frozen bacon, divided it into slices and fried it. A fair amount of fat was rendered, I even drained a little from the frying pan. Immediately I quickly fried garlic, tomatoes and dill. The aroma is simply incredible! Since the pasta had already cooled, I lightly browned it in the same frying pan, and then mixed it with the delicious filling. I really liked the recipe: fast, simple, satisfying and incredibly tasty! All products go well together. And you can eat anything with fried raw smoked bacon).
