Tonight's dinner mission is quick and simple to make. My penne with Canadian bacon is inspired by Fazoli's new dish, penne with bacon. Over the summer, I had a coupon for a BOGO combo at Fazoli's so I took the kids one afternoon after a day of back-to-school shopping. This was before our "ban on eating out" was in place. I got their new dish "Penne with bacon" and my daughter asked if she could try it. Next thing I knew she was ignoring her meal and focusing her attention on mine. She has asked me to try to make my over version of it so tonight I did.
The ingredients are simple and can probably be purchased for around $5, depending on if you have anything on hand or not. I usually have extra cheese from other meals I make so this was a good way to use up those leftovers so they don't go bad.
Here's what you'll need.
