Bacon and Spinach Penne Pasta

• 2 servings Pasta (penne)
• 4 strips Bacon
• 4 bunches Spinach
• 70 ml Pasta cooking water
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 Salt and pepper
• 1 clove Garlic
• 2 Eggs (optional)

1. Cut the bacon into 3cm pieces, and the spinach into 4cm pieces.
2. Boil the penne.
3. While the pasta is cooking, saute the garlic and bacon in olive oil.
4. Once the bacon begins to cook, add the spinach.
5. Season with salt and pepper (slightly saltier than what you're used to should be fine).
6. Once the spinach has wilted, mix in the pasta and reserved pasta water.
7. Lightly simmer together.
8. Adjust the flavor with salt and pepper to taste and serve.
9. The dish tastes even better if you top it with a poached egg, or a fresh egg yolk.
