I added 1 8oz. can tomato sauce, we like our's saucier. I feel that this recipe needs to be doubled to cover the amount of pasta required. Taste wise.........WOW!!! all loved it, will be made again and again in this house. Make it you will be happy.

Fantastic combination of flavors. If you don't have pepper bacon, regular would also work. Everyone in my family enjoyed this easy and delicious pasta recipe.

My husband and I loved this recipe. I used fresh tomatoes and fresh basil. I will definitely make this dish again.

This was so easy and sooo good. What a wonderful change from your standard marinara sauce. The taste was restaurant quality. I also did not use peppered bacon and it was still great.

This has become one of my favorites! This recipe does taste great with regular bacon but is even better with the peppered bacon. We have enjoyed this dish many times over!

This recipe is SOOOO good! I used 2 cans of diced tomatoes and a small can of tomato sauce. I also did not have basil so I used Italian seasoning instead. This seemed to make the perfect amount of sauce for that much pasta, as we like our pasta "saucy" as well. I served it with parmesan shreds, which you can find in the shredded cheese section (this tastes much better than the powdery Kraft kind) and I also sprinkled the bacon on top. It was very filling, flavorful and my husband called dibs on the leftovers. Thank you so much for sharing a wonderful recipe. Oh... I also added more garlic, YUM!

This was a great meal - such flavor! I used the entire pack of bacon and two cans of diced tomatoes that already had the garlic and basil in it so I didn't use the basil but still added the garlic. Wow, it was great! I would serve this for company anytime.
