Ww Low Fat Creamy Bacon and Onion Pasta

"This is a great substitute if you're craving creamy sauces but can't have the calories. The original recipe (from a supermarket recipe card) calls for creme fraiche but I'm sure lite sour cream would be just fine. This is also quick and easy on the budget."

directions

  • Dice the bacon and onions and finely chop the parsley.
  • Start to cook the pasta according to package directions (if using quick-cook pasta, wait a little before starting it so the rest is ready).
  • Spray a skillet with a little low fat cooking spray and cook the bacon for 1 minute.
  • Add the onions and Cavenders Greek seasoning. Cook until the bacon is fully cooked and the onions are soft- about 10 minutes.
  • Add the creme fraiche and chopped parsley to the skillet and stir. Heat it through.
  • Drain the pasta when it is cooked. Add it to the skillet and stir to mix well.
  • Serve hot and topped with a sprig of fresh parsley.

  1. This was delicious! Easy and quick to make and probably will reheat well. I used slices of turkey bacon which I chopped and fat free sour cream. I think I will add mushrooms next time! Satisfied my craving for calorie loaded creamy sauces. Thanks!
     
  2. Made for dinner, and we were definately not disappointed. Easy, inexpensive recipe, and did not make any adjustments to this. Very tasty and flavorful. Served with recipe#458293#458293, to complete our dinner last night. Made for 2012 Pick a Chef.
     
  3. Nice speedy, tasty recipe. I used Recipe #59207 for the seasoning, as the brand listed is not available where we live. Made for Everyday Holiday Tag game. :)
     
  4. This was a great dinner. I used whole wheat pasta and fat free sour cream as suggested and it turned out great. Oh and I also used some turkey bacon. We paired it with some peas and it was a great filling WW dinner! And the way I made it, only 7 points! :) Thanks for posting! Made for Holiday Tag February 2010!

I am a primary school teacher living in Bristol, England. At the moment I teach Kindergarten, known here as Reception. I really love my job but it doesn't leave much time for hobbies! I enjoy cooking for friends and aim to try new recipes as often as possible! My signature dish has to be White Chocolate Blondies, as it is my most requested sweet treat, and I definitely have a sweet tooth! Update- 5-5-09: Somebody was very thoughtful and gave me the gift of a premium membership. I can honestly say it made me feel so good! If you're out there, THANK YOU so much! I can't quite believe the generosity... <img src="http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a254/Sharon123/Copyoftag300-banner.jpg" border="0" alt="Susie's Banner for Newest Zaar Tag"> <img src="http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/Recipezaar%20Album/iplaytagin.jpg"> <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg"> <img src="http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/holidaybadge.gif" border="0" alt="Photobucket"X> <img src="http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/Banners/holidayprmr2.jpg"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg"> <img src="http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/7505/mybanner4a394ee84d5f0.jpg" > <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/cc-banner-7-09.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
