Chicken & Bacon Pasta Bake - Cucina

What is it?

Pasta, chicken breast and bacon pieces come together in a creamy sauce, then get finished with a melted cheese topping. It’s sold as a frozen pasta bake from Aldi’s Cucina range, so it sits alongside the line’s other heat-and-eat meals rather than the retailer’s simpler pasta dishes. Cook it from frozen in the oven until piping hot through, or follow the pack directions if you’re using a microwave. Expect short pasta, diced chicken and smoky bacon in a sauce that’s meant to hold its shape once heated, with the cheese forming the top layer.
