This is one of my favorite recipes that I learned to create, I love how it's so simple and yet so delicious to make. Hope you all enjoy it. You can comment about the recipe if you like or let me know some few tricks of your own if you have :)

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 a pack Pasta
Cream
bacon( if it was in the freezer, take it out in the morning and make sure the ice melts completely)
1 tablespoon of Thyme
mushrooms
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
olive oil
salt

PREPARATION:

cooking the pasta:

1)you need to get a pot and put it on medium heat and then pour water in the kettle and let it boil.
2) After the water is done boiling in the kettle you must pour the water in the pot ( the water should fill about 1/2 of the pot or a little bit more depending on how many people will be eating)
3) Wait for the water in the pot to boil then you can pour the pasta in the pot and wait for it to boil and then when it boils you pour a tablespoon of olive oil in the pasta and an inch of salt
4) While the pasta is cooking you can just keep stirring but don't leave the pasta or otherwise it will burn
5) Once the water is finished in the pot check how the pasta is looking if it's still a little bit hard then pour water again and let it boil in the pot (but be careful don't pour too much water because otherwise your pasta will come out soggy and we don't want that )
6) Once the above is done you can take your pasta out

Cooking the bacon

1) Get the bacon and as I have mentioned make sure it is not iced at all. Now depending on how many people you are serving for it will determine how much bacon you should use. Start cutting the bacon in small pieces or cube pieces
2) Get a non stick frying pan and heat the stove and then pour about a table spoon of olive oil then wait for the oil to get hot
3) Once the oil is hot pour the cut bacon into the pot and start frying it until it becomes a bit brown.( be careful not to over fry it and then it burns or becomes crispy)
4) Once the bacon is brown you can start pouring the cream in the pot and start stirring and lower the heat so it simmers
5) While the bacon is cooking you can start cutting your mushrooms in small pieces as well or however you like it then you add it in the bacon mixture
6) You can add a teaspoon of 1/2 of black pepper and a tablespoon of thyme and start stirring everything
7) Let it all simmer for about 5 minutes then you can pour your bacon mixture into your pasta and mix it nicely so that the pasta has all the sauce.
8) And lastly enjoy your homemade alfredo pasta..If you would like you can add some grated cheese on top
