Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain the pasta and set it aside.

While the pasta is boiling, heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the bacon slices and cook until they are crispy and all the fat is rendered.

Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel using a slotted spoon, leaving 2 tablespoons of rendered fat in the skillet.

Increase the heat to medium and add the minced garlic and chopped broccoli florets to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes until the broccoli turns bright green and slightly tender.

Season the broccoli with the ground black pepper and crushed red pepper flakes. If needed, add a pinch of salt.

Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss well to combine.

Drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil and toss again to ensure everything is well-coated.

Crumble the cooked bacon and add it to the skillet along with the freshly grated parmesan. Toss again until everything is evenly distributed.

Serve your Deliciously Quick Bacon-Broccoli Pasta Bowl immediately while it’s hot. Enjoy!
