Instructions
Bring a pot of water to a boil and add in your pasta when ready. Cooking until al dente (see your pasta container for instructions).
While the water is boiling, in a medium sized pan, fry your bacon until crispy.
Once done, set it aside, keeping the bacon fat in the pat, and sauté your shallots and garlic until softened.
Next, add in the mushrooms, continuing to sauté.
By this time, your pasta should be done. Add a little bit of pasta water to the pan to deglaze if needed. If not, add your pasta into the pan, alongside the peas. Then stir in the spinach.
Pour in the reserved pasta water, heavy cream, and parmesan. Stir to combine and to coat the pasta with the sauce.
