Cooking Steps

Cook bacon
1
  • Before starting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high (use same for 4 servings). Wash and dry all produce.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium. 
  • When the pan is hot, add bacon. (NOTE: For 4 servings, cook bacon in batches.) Cook for 5-8 min, flipping occasionally, until crispy.** 
  • Remove the pan from heat.
  • Using tongs, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined cutting board. Set aside.
  • Discard all but 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) bacon fat in the pan.
Boil spaghetti and peas
2
  • To the boiling water, add spaghetti. Cook for 6-7 min, until half-cooked.
  • To the same pot, add peas and boil with spaghetti for another 6 min, until spaghetti is tender but still firm to the bite. 
  • Reserve 1/2 cup (1 cup) pasta water.
  • Strain spaghetti and peas, then return to the pot, off heat.
Toast panko
3
  • Meanwhile, finely chop parsley.
  • Reheat the same pan with reserved bacon fat over medium.
  • When the pan is hot, add half the panko (use all for 4 servings). Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until panko is golden. Season with salt and pepper. (TIP: Keep an eye on panko so it doesn't burn!)
  • Remove the pan from heat, then transfer panko to a small bowl.
  • To the same bowl, add parsley, then stir to combine.
  • Carefully wipe the pan clean.
Make sauce
4
  • Reheat the same pan over medium.
  • When the pan is hot, add cream, cream cheese, pesto and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) reserved pasta water. Season with pepper and garlic salt. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until sauce thickens.
  • To the pot with spaghetti, add sauce, then toss to coat. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add more reserved pasta water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
Make salad
5
  • In a large bowl, toss together arugula and spinach mix and half the balsamic glaze (use all for 4 servings). Season with salt and pepper.
Finish and serve
6
  • Crumble bacon into bite-sized pieces. 
  • To the pot with spaghetti and sauce, add half the bacon, then stir to combine.
  • Divide pasta between bowls. Top with remaining bacon. 
  • Sprinkle breadcrumb-parsley mixture over pasta.
  • Serve salad alongside. Sprinkle seed blend over salad.
