Bacon and Corn Pasta, with Recipe

Bacon and Corn Pasta,
Michael Symon The Chew

I made this originally May 2013. I saw it in my recipe pile and thought it was time to make it again...I should have looked at that May 2013 post before I made this. Hubby looked at me like I had 3 heads when I said I made this before- I knew I made it- I had the printed recipe in the "Made" cookbook...but didn't remember him not eating it. Q missed out on this twice already too. This was more of a garlic pasta this time- I didn't add pasta sauce. Didn't even occur to me to do so. 

Hubby did eat it this time...lol I am not quite sure how it made him feel but it lasted a few nights so it was all good. I even had it for lunch one day. Mrs Jennifer can't wait for me to post this recipe haha.
