Really liked this. I used half fresh and half thawed frozen broccoli. Next time I will use a sauce brand that I have tried and liked instead of something new. The bacon adds an interesting texture and taste.

This recipe is one of my all time favourite pasta dishes made however,with alfredo. I like to consider it the North American version of the Italian Carbonara. Though not the most healthy of suggestion, I recommend using accumulating bacon fat to sauté the garlic, omit onions to enhance a two ingredient recipe. Substitue fresh ground black pepper instead of parmesan which will add nothing to an alfred sauce. Also remember not to drain bacon fat down your sink's drain as it will solidify as it cools. Instead collect it in a dish and wait a few hours until it becomes gelatenous (jelly). I like to add a paper towel into mine when it's still liquid to disperse it and make it easier to wipe out of the container into the garbage after. (not sure if you can compost, hightly unlikely)

My husband never complains, but we both decided this was pretty blah. Maybe the alfredo version per other reviewers would be better. We won't try this again.

Yummy! My whole family loved it. There was not quite enough sauce for my taste. Next time I will only use 12 oz of pasta.

I received this in my e-mail this morning and went to the store after work to get the ingredients. My husband and I loved this dish. It's super easy and it has terrific flavor. I added some red pepper flakes to the sauce per one suggestion below. It was delicious and I will definitely make this again.

Excellent recipe...I do a similar dish without tomato sauce... Instead I use 1 package of cream cheese and 3 ozs. of fresh cream, which I mix together and add to the pasta once the broccoli is cooked... Other than that the rest is the same recipe...Excellent taste!

I recieved this recipe in my inbox today and had to comment. My best friend makes the same thing except she uses the ragu alfredo sauce instead and it is soooooo yummy!! Im going to try with the spaghetti sauce tonight though, that sounds just as good!

Love this recipe! I used farfalle (bowtie) pasta. The broccoli was cooked to perfection with the pasta. The taste of the bacon, onions and spaghetti sauce was unbelievably delicious! I will definitely be making this again soon.

We thought this was a solid 4 star recipe. I liked the taste of the broccoli with the sauce (I used Ragu chunky mushroom). I served with a salad and wheat rolls. Easy and tasty.

Oh, this was great! I probably used a little more bacon (I had some leftover that was already cooked/crumbled) and didn't measure the broccoli, just used 2-3 heads. Didn't have linguinin, so used fettucini and cooked the broccoli in the spaghetti sauce, not the pasta water. Used a couple tablespoons butter to cook the onion/garlic since I had already cooked the bacon and added the garlic when the onion was almost done to avoid scorching.
