As it turns out, I don't have Swine Flu. (PTL!) So last night I decided to laugh in the face of danger, stick it to the pig and make a meal that contained...what else? BACON.

.5 cup olives (mix of green and black)
2 roma tomatoes, diced
1 small purple onion
4 strips overcooked bacon
5 day supply of Tamiflu
Serves: two
DIRECTIONS:
Prepare pasta according to the package directions.
Heat a skillet on the stove, tossing in at least 2 strips of bacon per person. Err on the side of crispy bacon, to make sure the pig doesn't get revenge. When the bacon is done, put it aside to cool, then crumble the strips into bits.
Keep the bacon grease and caramelize the onions in it. Setting the burner to medium heat and stirring for about 2 minutes.
Toss pesto with the pasta, then incorporate remaining ingredients.
Plate. Sprinkle with grated parmesan, and share with your fatalist roommate!
