Pasta on Singles‘ Day

     Today is 11/11/11, when there is no explanation or misunderstanding on whether the month, date or year comes first. I'm not sure whether we share the custom of Singles' Day between Chinese and western. However, I'd like to explain why today is Singles' Day, since it is fun. We all know one means single, and today, when six singles get together, it is time for those singles to celebrate their day-- the day for those single men and women. I'm single, so I celebrate it by treating myself delicious pasta, which is supposed to be a joke. Now, let's start!





















Ingredients:

  • Pasta, Bacon(I used turkey bacon.), mushrooms, celery(optional,I put it in,because I want to add some vegetable in). The amount is showed as the picture, which is quite flexible.
  • And vegetable oil, salt, butter, pepper...
  • And the most important one: Creamy Alfredo

Step1:
Boil the water in the pot, put some oil and salt in the water, and cook noodles/pasta first according the direction on the pasta's pack. Pay attention to the directions, because different type of pasta has diverse cooking time. Then, pour away the hot water and put the noodles in the cold water after they are boiled. At last, pour the cold water away, and set the noodles aside.




Step2:
Cut the bacon, mushrooms and celery into pieces. Turn on the stove, put a piece of butter in, then put in bacon. When the bacon change color and the smell goes out, put mushrooms and celery in. Stir for a while.








Step3:
Put the noodles in, and stir. Then, put the creamy Alfredo in.(I put half bottle with half of the noodles), as well as pepper and salt. Mix them up.


Then, finish!
The amount of pepper, salt is determined by your personal preference. Less salt is recommended.

Anyway, as the title say, love your love. Cook it however you want. The creamy Alfredo is responsible for the taste, so don't worry and enjoy!
