Everyone loves pasta-at least some people do, so here's a simple recipe =)

INGREDIENTS

* 8 ounces rigatoni pasta
* 8 slices bacon(can be substituted), cut into 1 inch pieces
* 2 cups broccoli florets
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
* 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
* 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
* 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

DIRECTIONS

1. Cook rigatoni according to package directions and drain.
2. In a 10 inch skillet cook the bacon over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is browned. Add the broccoli and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is slightly tender (about 4 to 5 minutes).
3. Stir in the cooked rigatoni, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese and cayenne pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is melted. Sprinkle with the fresh chopped parsley.
