Ingredients:

Serving

1 package (16 oz) spiral pasta
1 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed and coarsely chopped
8 bacon strips
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
2/3 cup half-and-half cream
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
1/8 tsp coarsely ground pepper
1/4 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Directions:

Cook pasta according to package directions.
Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, bring 2 cups water to a boil. Add asparagus; cover and boil for 3 minutes. Drain and immediately place asparagus in ice water. Drain and pat dry.
In the same pan, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain. Crumble bacon and set aside. Saute garlic in butter and oil until tender. Stir in cream. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 3-4 minutes or until slightly thickened.
Stir in mozzarella cheese until melted. Drain pasta; add to pan. Stir in the salt, asparagus, parsley and reserved bacon. Sprinkle with pepper and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Yield: 8 servings.
