Add bacon to a hot skillet and cook for about 4 minutes or until crispy.

Transfer cooked bacon to a small bowl.

Add garlic to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds in the bacon drippings.

Add flour to the pan and cook for about 30 more seconds.

Gradually add milk to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly until thick and bubbling.

Once the milk mixture is slightly thickened, add parmesano regano and stir until melted.

Turn in salt and a little bit of the reserved cooking liquid from the drained pasta.

Toss in fresh noodles and coat them with the sauce.

Add the bacon back to the pan along with fresh parsley and black pepper.

Toss everything together before serving.
