I love leeks, I love bacon, I love cheese, I love pasta.
This is by far not a healthy meal, but a yummy one.
2 Leeks, lighter green parts sliced and chopped (make sure they are cleaned well)
1/4 lb bacon diced
1/2 lb smoked Gouda grated
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese grated
1/8 cup flour
1 cup milk
1 tbs Dijon mustard
Small squirt of ketchup (optional)
a couple shakes of Tabasco
1/2 lb elbow noodles
salt/pepper
Cook the bacon until crisp over the stove and transfer to a paper plate with paper towels when done. Leave the bacon fat in the pan (not a lot, just enough to saute the leeks).
Start boiling the water for the pasta and cook according to package while you make the leeks and cheese sauce.
Saute leeks for about 8 minutes or until soft. Season with salt/pepper.
Remove leeks and place with cooked bacon. Add flour and milk and whisk to eliminate flour clumps. Cook on low/medium for a couple of minutes. Add cheese and melt. Add leeks, bacon, hot sauce, ketchup and Dijon and stir.
Add cooked pasta to cheese sauce and serve.
