I like the idea of this recipe. Certainly different from the classic Alfredo but kicked-up a notch by the bacon, mushrooms, spring onions and the other spices not commonly found in the same. I used Ricotta cheese instead of the cottage and increased to one cup of Romano into the mixture. Also, I finely grated some Parmesan for use on top of the noodles when served. This is very good on a cold night as it is very hearty and very filling. I will prepare this again.
