Mushroom and Bacon Pasta

By Rumblingtummy @RumblingTummi
My kids love pasta especially my son.  They started off with lasagna, meatball spaghetti and subsequently carbonara and since then, carbonara got stuck there.

For an alternative choice, today I did spaghetti aglio e olio topped with mushroom and bacon (both my family's favourite).

Am glad that Mushroom and Bacon Pasta turn out good.
