INGREDIENTS
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
2 slices Lean Bacon
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 cup Fresh Basil, chopped
1 clove Garlic, minced
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the lean bacon. Cook the bacon until it becomes crispy, then remove it from the pan and crumble it into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, mix the nonfat Greek yogurt with the minced garlic and chopped fresh basil. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Toss the warm pasta with the creamy yogurt sauce, ensuring the pasta is evenly coated.
Gently fold in the crispy bacon pieces and drizzle the olive oil over the pasta. Adjust seasoning as desired and serve immediately.
