Preparation:
  1. Prepare all the ingredients as described above.

  2. In a deep pot pour water, add a teaspoon of salt, I opted for spaghetti, but you can use any other pasta. Wait for it to boil, then add the pasta, cook, and stir about 8 minutes or follow the instructions. When the dough is ready, strain it well and leave it in a colander.

  3. While waiting for the water to boil, make the Philadelphia sauce.

  4. Fry chopped bacon in a wok pan with olive oil, with stirring constantly. Fry the bacon until transparent and takes on a brownish color.

  5. Place the fried bacon on a plate with the help of a slotted spoon.

  6. Finely chop the leek, sauté in the same pan in a little olive oil for about 2 minutes. Do everything on moderate heat.

  7. Then add diced pepper, salt, and pepper to taste. Stew until the vegetables are soft, 10–15 minutes, with the wok pan covered. Then add the butter, stir and wait for it to melt. Return the fried bacon, mix well, finally add the Philadelphia cream cheese, mix well until it melts, then add 100 ml of water, mix all the ingredients to combine well and simmer for another 4–5 minutes. Sprinkle with oregano, control the taste (salt and black pepper) and add as needed.

  8. When the sauce is ready, sprinkle it with dry parsley and turn off the heat.

  9. Pour cooked and drained pasta into the sauce, add 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan or other cheese, mix well.

  10. Serve in a shallow dish, add more sauce and Parmesan on top of the pasta.

Buon appetito!

NOTE: In case you have some minced meat, or you have some left over in the package, you can use it and for this meal. It is enough to have 150 grams for the two of you, but in that case cook without bacon because it would be too much! You put the minced meat after the leeks, simmer for a few minutes, then add the peppers and the rest of the recipe. You can also use the leftover meatballs from the previous meal with this sauce. Try it, you will enjoy every bite!
