BLT Rigatoni

This light pasta dish was a home run twist on the classic BLT combo. Crispy bacon, cherry tomatoes and spinach come together with thick rigatoni pasta, smothered in a mozzarella cheese sauce, topped with Parmesan and baked to perfection. And it won’t break the calorie bank either at only 402 calories per serving (1/6th of a whole 13” x 9” pan) .
