    Shrimp, Bacon & Burrata Pasta

    This Shrimp, Bacon and Burrata Pasta dish is packed with hearty flavor. There's several stars in this show but the burrata cheese topped at the end wins the award!

    I've started a new series on Instagram. I was gifted a cookbook for my birthday this year filled with old family and friends recipes. My goal is to tackle at least two recipes each month. These classic meals are completely nostalgic and the fun part is being able to add a twist or new pairing!

    We need classic pasta dishes in our repertoire and this dish should be added to your list! With just a handful of ingredients (I use this recipe when trying to rid of produce), you will think this dish was made at an Italian restaurant!

    The original recipe calls for less ingredients but adding more veggies, assorted cheeses, white wine and burrata, takes this to the next level. This dish reminds me of the linguini weesie recipe, there's something about classic Italian style food that you can never deny!

    Here's a few tips to maximize your time.

    • Cook bacon ahead of time. Always prepare in the oven for best results.
    • Refrigerated pasta works best if you're pressed for time.
    • Roughly chop all ingredients, don't stress about precision. Toppings will cook down anyway.
    • Save time and effort and use pot (besides boiling pasta).

    Let's get started with the recipe!
