Ingredients
- 6 ounces uncooked No Yolks noodles (half of a 12 ounce bag)
- 5 slices bacon
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 2 large apples, peeled and diced
- 1 large lemon, juiced
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 5 ounce package baby spinach (or any green that you prefer)
Instructions
- Cook No Yolks noodles according to package directions. When noodles are done, drain and set aside for the time being.
- Meanwhile, add bacon to a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat until cooked through. Remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate and set aside. At this point you should wipe out any burnt bits from the skillet, but leave most of the bacon grease to continue cooking.
- Place skillet back over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 5-7 minutes, until tender
- Add apples to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes. Add garlic, baby spinach, and juice from the lemon. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until greens have cooked down.
- Chop the cooked bacon and add that to the skillet, along with the cooked pasta. Toss everything together and remove from heat. Enjoy!
Notes
Notes:
In step 5, you can also add additional lemon juice or butter to taste. I find the ingredients as written work perfectly, but if you prefer a more coated pasta you may find you like a little extra lemon juice or some butter tossed in at the end.
You can also sprinkle a little parmesan or add a little ricotta if you'd like.
