Penne With Tomato, Bacon And Cheese Sauce

The idea is not simply that we have been forgiven, and therefore we ought to forgive, but that God Himself , in Christ has forgiven us, and therefore our debt is incalculable. No matter how much wretched evil has been done against us, it is little compared with the offense that we have thrown in the face of God. Yet God in Christ has forgiven us. If we know anything of the release of this forgiveness, if we have glimpsed anything of the magnitude of the debt we owe to God, our forgiveness of others will not seem to be such a large leap.

INSTRUCTIONS

Saute bacon in heavy large saucepan over medium heat until crisp.
Spoon off all but 4 tablespoons drippings from pan. Add garlic to pan
and stir 30 seconds. Add wine and scrape up any browned bits. Add
tomatoes with juices, tomato paste, oregano and crushed red pepper.
Simmer until sauce thickens slightly, stirring occasionally, about 10
minutes. Mix in 2 tablespoons parsley.  Meanwhile, cook pasta in large
pot of boiling salted water until just  tender but still firm to bite.
Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water.  Return pasta to pot. Add
sauce. Toss over medium heat until sauce  coats pasta, adding reserved
cooking water by tablespoonfuls if  mixture is dry. Mix in cheese.
Season with salt and pepper. Transfer  to bowl. Sprinkle with remaining
2 tablespoons parsley.  Makes 4 to 6 servings.  Bon Appetit November
