with Parmesan Cheese & Spinach
This dish may be simple to create but it’s bursting with complex flavours. Sweet tomatoes pair perfectly with salty bacon simmering in a herby, tomatoey sauce. Throw in some fettuccine and top with a scattering of Parmesan for an unforgettable dinner delight! *We’ve replaced the spaghetti in this recipe with fettuccine due to local ingredient availability. It may be a little different to what’s pictured, but just as delicious!*
