Feeding You Friday!



In the mood for something so NOT healthy for you? Something filling and tasty?





Thanks to Giada De Laurentiis for supplying me with one of my fav go to recipes for company. Not to mention that my boys love it! T-man refers to it as bacon sketti!

Cinnamon-Pancetta Carbonara

Ingredients
4 slices bacon, chopped
4 slices pancetta, chopped
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups whipping cream
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan
6 large egg yolks
1lb box fettuccine
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives





Directions
Saute the bacon and pancetta in a heavy large frying pan over medium heat until almost crisp, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the cinnamon over the bacon and pancetta and saute until the bacon is crisp and golden, about 2 minutes longer. Cool. Whisk in the cream, cheese, and yolks to blend.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the fettuccine and cook until it is just tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Drain. Add the fettuccine to the cream mixture and toss over medium-low heat until the sauce coats the pasta thickly, about 5 minutes (do not boil). Season the pasta, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer the pasta to a large wide serving bowl. Sprinkle with chives and serve.

Enjoy!!
