Spaghetti Bacon Alfredo

Techically, I can't call this Fettuccine Alfredo. It's more like...Spaghetti Alfredo. Hey! This meal was an exercise in making due with what I had on hand and putting dinner on the table, fast. I'd frozen the cooked noodles from a spaghetti night a few weeks earlier, the whipping cream was begging to be used again after a tasty experience with some Indian Butter Chicken a while back, and the bacon, well, I can't waste bacon. That's criminal! So the contents of my fridge called for this creation. Spaghetti Bacon Alfredo. Tada!



Ingredients
1 stick butter
1/2 cup whipping cream
3/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2 Tbs dried parsley
cooked and diced bacon
cooked & drained spaghetti noodles

Directions
Melt butter in sauce pan over medium heat. Add whipping cream and simmer for five minutes until sauce starts to thicken (should coat the spoon. Drips are okay). Add in Parmesan and spices and stir until cheese is melted. Pour over warm spaghetti noodles and sprinkle with bacon.

Serve with a fresh salad or a side of grapes and some crusty bread.
