Farfalle (Bow-Tie Pasta) With Creamy Bacon & Leek Sauce

• 8 ounces bacon (chopped) or 8 ounces ham (chopped)
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 garlic cloves (finely chopped)
• 1 cup leek (chopped or sliced)
• 1 cup light cream
• 1/2 cup white wine (dry)
• 1/3 cup sour cream
• 1 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
• 1 lb farfalle pasta (bow-tie pasta)
• ground black pepper (to taste)

1. Cook bacon in frying pan until crisp. Drain on paper towels. (If using ham, skip this step.).
2. Heat 3 tbsp of butter in a large frying pan and add the leeks & garlic. Add ham after a few minutes and cook until brown and the leeks are soft.
3. Add in cream, wine, sour cream, and cheese. Stir until the mixture is hot and slightly thickened. Stir in the bacon/ham & pepper to taste.
4. Meanwhile cook farfalle (bow-tie) pasta in boiling, salted water. Cook until al dente.
5. Add sauce to drained pasta. Toss to combine and serve immediately. As with most pastas, this pairs well with salad & bread. Enjoy!
