    I had everything on hand for this but used fussilli in place of wagon wheel pasta, this come together really nice and I also added some extra veggies to the mix. Part way through cooking it was looking a little dry for my liking so I ended up adding some cream so it was saucier once cooked which worked out lovely. Thanks for posting!

    Wagon Wheel Pasta With Ricotta Cheese, Bacon, and Peas, Not sure where I got this! But it’s a filling (light on the meat) meal , I had everything on hand for this but used fussilli in place of wagon wheel pasta, this come together really nice and I also added some extra veggies to the mix Part way through cooking it was looking a little dry for my liking so I ended up adding some cream so it was saucier once cooked which worked out lovely Thanks for posting!, I actually had everything on hand, which is remarkable since I am usually out of peas/bacon etc This was, however; a delightful dish that gave my family a comforting meal, and we seriously ate the whole casserole dish I browned the bacon first, drain on paper towel, then added onion and cooked until soft in same pan Added all other ingredients to pasta, and cheese and breadcrumbs on top Very quick to put together, and we enjoyed immensely Thanks WI Cheesehead! Will make again:)
