Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Pour boiling water into a medium saucepan over high heat with a generous pinch of salt. • Cook orecchiette in boiling water until 'al dente', 8 minutes. Drain and return to pan. • Meanwhile, finely chop brown onion.
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook diced bacon and onion, breaking up bacon with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes. Stir in garlic paste until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Meanwhile, slice snacking tomatoes in half. • To the saucepan with cooked pasta, add baby spinach leaves, tomatoes, Dijon mustard, dill & parsley mayonnaise, chicken-style stock powder, chilli flakes (if using), bacon, onion and a pinch of pepper. • Divide pasta salad between the two containers. Refrigerate.
• When you are ready for lunch, enjoy creamy bacon pasta salad straight from the refrigerator or microwave on high in 30 second blasts, until heated to your liking. Enjoy!
