INGREDIENTS
2 oz whole wheat pasta (dry)
3 slices turkey bacon
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup low-fat milk
1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp whole wheat flour
1 tsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the turkey bacon until crispy. Remove bacon, crumble it, and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the olive oil and sauté the minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Sprinkle in the whole wheat flour and stir for about 1 minute to form a roux.
Gradually whisk in the low-fat milk and low-sodium chicken broth, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
Allow the sauce to simmer for 2-3 minutes until it begins to thicken. Stir in half of the grated Parmesan cheese until melted.
Mix the drained pasta into the sauce, ensuring every strand is evenly coated.
Top the pasta with the crispy turkey bacon and the remaining Parmesan cheese.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, savory dish.
