Who doesn’t love a creamy dish? This is a delicious and easy meal you can make – for yourself or even on a home date night. It doesn’t involve too many ingredients, and you can even replace the udon noodles for any pasta you may have in your pantry. You can replace the bacon as well with your choice of meat, but I think the bacon really adds that salty-ness that this dish needs!
This recipe serves 1, but you can easily double the ingredients and make it for 2 servings. I love whipping this dish up for a quick lunch when I don’t have much time! You can find udon noodles easily in an Asian grocery store or as I mentioned earlier, feel free to use any noodles of your choice!
What should I serve with it?
I always love serving some sort of pickles or a side of kimchi when I eat something creamy. If you’re not a fan of pickles or fermented veggies, I think a nice soda on the side would be really good as well!
