Dolcelatte, bacon, spinach pasta

This was a fridge scrounge meal that was startlingly good.
I picked up some Dolcelatte cheese a while ago as it was going cheap. The bacon we'd had for a little while, and spinach needed using up. There was also a little bit of creme fraiche. Et voila.
Fry up the bacon, add the spinach. Break up the cheese into small lumps, add to the creme fraiche.
Once pasta is cooked - add the creme/cheese, stir well to get the cheese to melt a little, then add the bacon/spinach. Season well. Done.
The salty bacon went so well with the blue cheese. Lovely lovely.
I'd weighed the pasta so portions were good - you were satisfied but not 'full'. Its a very rich dish, so you don't want too much.
