Bow Tie Bacon Asparagus Pasta


"Who doesn't love a rich and creamy pasta!  This recipe makes a huge batch.  Half the recipe to make a dinner for two or three.-Recipe by Miss Rainy Simpson

Ingredients:
1 package of bow tie pasta, boiled and drained
½ cup of butter
3 cloves of garlic, minced
¾ cup grated parmesan
2 chicken bouillon cubes, crushed
2 cups of heavy cream
A large bunch of asparagus, blanched and cut into one inch pieces (I used frozen)
½ cup of bacon crumbles
¼ cup of pine nuts

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat.  Sauté minced garlic in the butter for 1 minute.  Add crushed bouillon cubes and stir until dissolved.   Stir in parmesan cheese.  Slowly stir in cream and pepper to taste.  Add pasta, asparagus, bacon and pine nuts.  Stir until heated through and serve.
