Summer Squash Pasta - July 13, 2009


Fusilli with Summer Squash, Bacon, and Chevre

We have very little left from our last CSA delivery (nearly 2 weeks ago), but we still had one beautiful summer squash to use, and last night it went into this pasta dish. Nick looked up a bunch of recipes and most paired the squash with sausage, but since we didn't have any, we substituted bacon. I don't know if you've noticed, but we always have bacon on hand. We cooked the bacon first and then used a little of the fat to saute the summer squash. For the last 30 seconds of cooking, we threw in some minced fresh garlic and fresh thyme. We mixed the bacon and the sweet, nutty squash with cooked fusilli noodles and a little chevre, topped with pecorino romano and a thyme sprig and ate like kings.
