Creamy Cavatappi Pasta | easy dinner idea! | The Recipe Rebel

Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add pasta and cook just until al dente.

Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a skillet on medium-high heat until crispy.

Without draining, add the sun dried tomatoes, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and cook 1 minute.

Add the cream and cook 2-3 minutes until the sauce comes together.

Before draining the pasta, reserve at least 1 cup of pasta water.

Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce, adding enough pasta water so that the sauce comes together. The starchy water will create a thick and luscious sauce.

Stir in fresh chopped parsley if desired and serve.
