Chicken Bacon Pasta

DSC_0002
I tweaked a recipe I had to make this... turned out really yummy- not the healthiest dish ever, but good!

INGREDIENTS:
1 pkg of bacon, cut in thirds
2-3 chicken breasts, cubed
Green Beans- I used a bag of fresh ones
1 onion, sliced
Red Pepper Flakes
Salt/Pepper
Penne Pasta
Heavy Whipping Cream- 1/4 pint
1 block of cream cheese
1/4 cup of parmesan cheese
2 eggs

DIRECTIONS:
In a skillet, cook the small strips of bacon until almost done. Begin cooking pasta according to box directions. Remove most of the grease from the bacon skillet (leave some to cook the rest of the ingredients with), and then add in chicken, green beans and onion- sprinkle red pepper flakes and salt/pepper over while cooking. Cook until chicken is done (green beans and onions should also be tender). Remove from heat and drain pasta. In a sauce pan, heat the whipping cream and block of cream cheese- with a whisk break up and stir until the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat, and add parmesan cheese and eggs. Add back in the hot pasta and  bacon/chicken mixture. Add more pepper if needed. The hot ingredients will cook the eggs- no need to return to heat. Serve and enjoy!
