Bacon Chipotle

Have you ever had the Baked Bacon Chipotle Penne at Boston Pizza?  If you haven’t you should really try it.  It is amazing!  Since I can’t go to Boston Pizza every time I’m the mood for this I decided to see if it was online.  At first I thought that I would just use Google for this but I have recently signed up on Pinterest and figured that there was bound to be at least one recipe on there.  I was not disappointed.  There were several different recipes that I looked at before settling on a recipe called Chipotle Cheesy Bacon Penne.  It looks really good.  I am sadly disappointed that I don’t have everything that I needed to make this because I really really want some.

Ingredients:

-4 cups of uncooked Penne pasta

-1 large tomato Diced

-1 can of sliced mushrooms drained or fried fresh mushrooms

-6 to 8 slices of bacon diced and then fried to make fresh bacon bits (drain off the fat on a paper towel)

-2 cups of Tex Mex shredded cheese

-4 green onions chopped

Sauce Ingredients:

-2 teaspoons of minced garlic (i use jarred garlic)

-3 tablespoons of margarine or butter

-2 tablespoons of flour

-1/4 teaspoon of pepper

-1/2 teaspoon of Mrs Dash Chipotle Seasoning

-2 1/2 cups of 2% milk

-2 cups of Tex Mex cheese shredded

I am definitely going to try this and for any of you who have had this at Boston Pizza (and even those of who you haven’t) should too.  I however won’t be putting mushrooms in because I don’t like them.
