Pepperoni Pasta

This is an easy 20 minute recipe I make often when we are on a time crunch or want something hot for lunch. It's simple, easy and has 6 ingredients. These are things you can always keep around the house too. My friend Leah gave me this recipe and Drew and I love it and make it a lot.

Pepperoni Pasta

1 box bowtie pasta
1/2 package of pepperoni (I use turkey pepperoni - it's less greasy and less calories. Tastes the same in this dish)
3 cloves garlic (whole)
1/4 of an onion, finely chopped
1 can petite diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream

Cook and drain the pasta. While you are doing this saute the onion and pepperoni. (I usually slice the pepperoni in half or in fourths.) Add the garlic cloves at the end. Add the pasta, diced tomatoes and whipping cream to the pepperoni mixture and cook on low until thickened. (Make sure to remove the garlic cloves when its done!) Calories for this dish are 423 per cup. But for something quick to feed the kiddo's it's still not too bad! That's it folks! It makes great leftovers. Delicious!
