Serves 1-2

Ingredients:

1/4 pound Helicopter-shaped Pasta (a good handful plus)

2 tbs Extra Virgin Olive Oil

2 big garlic cloves  - diced

2 Cooked crispy bacon strips, diced 

Parmigiano-Reggiano - some shaved, some grated

Pepper to taste

 

Directions:

1) Cook pasta al dente in boiling water with lots of sea salt (as salty as the sea).

2) While pasta is cooking, place 1 Tbs olive oil in a warm (small) skillet.  Add minced garlic, and warm for a minute or so -- until garlic starts to brown.

3) Select 2 nice tomatoes from the can, and gently slice into large pieces.  

4) Pull Pasta and add the skillet, turning to coat.

5) Sprinkle diced bacon and pepper lightly

6) Place tomatoes on pasta in pan.
