- 1 c. freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- ¼ c. chopped parsley

- Meanwhile, heat a deep skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped bacon and saute for about 5 minutes or until the bacon is crisp. Toss the garlic into the skillet and saute for 1 minute.
- Add the hot drained spaghetti the pan and toss for 2 minutes to coat the pasta in bacon fat. Remove pan from heat.
