Pasta Caesar Salad

This is from the Woman's Weekly Pasta Cookbook. More filling than an ordinary caesar. I substituted cubed bacon for bacon rashers as they crunch up better and require less preparation. I also changed the recipe to a bottled caesar dressing (the original had a from scratch caesar dressing)

Ingredients
