Zucchini-Bacon Pasta Toss

- 1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup shredded asiago cheese, divided
- 1/3 - 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- Heat olive oil in a very large skillet (I like to use my cast iron chicken fryer), and begin to saute onion on medium-high heat.
- When onion is half cooked add squash and saute, stirring frequently until onion is browned and squash is nearly cooked.
- Add bacon, Parmesan, and black pepper. Cover and let rest 3-5 minutes to soften cheese.
- Toss with hot pasta and 1/4 cup Asiago cheese. Turn into serving dish. Top with remaining Asiago Cheese.
