Sam's yummy macaroni

Busy day today so the Rock Chick and I treated ourselves to eggs (courtesy of the girls), bacon, garlic mushrooms and beans.

Sam had bacon earlier and decided to declare UDI and cook for himself.  What he came up with was quite staggeringly good!

So here's the recipe for Sam's macaroni.

Whilst the macaroni is cooking in some salted water...

In the usual sinful amount of butter (yes, it's a family thing) with a glug of olive oil to stop it burning he cooked some mushrooms with a couple of rashers of chopped up bacon and, when almost done, added a good slug of double cream that was lurking in the fridge.  I should say that this dish isn't for the faint hearted or, indeed, weak hearted!  When the macaroni was cooked it was drained, returned to the pan and had two dessert spoonfuls of Sacla Sundried Tomato Pesto stirred through it.  The mushroom/bacon mix was added and all combined.  A mixture of cheddar and parmesan cheese was added and, when melted together in a 180* oven for about ten minutes, was plated up.

Job done...Huzzah!
