BBQ Bacon Pasta Bake | Healthy & Slimming Recipe

I love a tasty, easy, slimming friendly Pasta Bake!


This is what I created one evening when I really couldn't be bothered to create much else... I used my favourite BBQ sauce recipe, some bacon and veg that I had in the fridge.

I love this kind of simple meal, minimal effort but maximum deliciousness. 


Of course, if you really don't want to make the sauce yourself, you could use a low sugar BBQ sauce instead. I like to make up a batch of my own BBQ sauce, and then either freeze it or keep it in the fridge for another time.

This dish served two of us, with plenty of leftovers for the next day. I always cook a little extra to have another time!


If you also don't have the time to let it bake, just cook the pasta all the way, mix it up and serve! It really is that simple.
