Zucchini Fettuccini

This is a recipe I got from my friend Emily

It looks so fancy and tastes so delicious
(but maybe not so much in my picture)

4 ½ t. butter                              4 ½ t. olive oil

2 t. pressed garlic                      ½ large sliced onion

½ lb. Sliced fresh mushrooms    1 c. cream

¾ c. fresh parmesan cheese       Fettuccini noodles

½ lb. Bacon sliced thin and browned

4-5 julienne cut small zucchini squash

-Saute 3 minutes:  oil, butter , garlic, onion and mushrooms.  Add squash and bacon, cook just a few minutes.  Don’t overcook.  Add cream and cheese, stir and blend.  Serve over cooked noodles.

*  I always add my noodles to the finished dish and stir it together.  Let it sit for a few minutes, too.  It thickens up a little bit. It's even better the next day :)
