Tomato Cream Pasta with Gorgonzola Cheese

My family love pasta so I created this recipe. Actually this is not my creation, this is just my own version.

what you need...

1 tbsp.    olive oil
2 tbsps.   butter
2 tbsps.   onions (minced)
1/2 tsp.   garlic (minced)
1/4 cup   tomato sauce
1 cup      all-purpose cream
1/4 cup   chicken stock
3 tbsps.   Gorgonzola cheese
1 tbsp.     white wine
               salt and pepper to taste
200 g      penne pasta (pre-cooked)
3 tbsps.   bacon bits (fried)
1 tbsp.    Parmesan cheese (grated)

what to do...

1. Melt butter over low heat in a sauce pan. Add the olive oil. Saute   onions and garlic until caramelized.
2. Stir in tomato sauce, all-purpose cream, Gorgonzola cheese, chicken   stock and white wine. Bring to simmer over low heat until the sauce   slightly thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Toss in cooked Penne pasta and mix until pasta is well coated with   sauce.
4. Place in a platter and top with bacon bits and Parmesan cheese.
5. Serve.

*makes 2 servings.
*when Gorgonzola cheese is unavailable, you can use any cheese of your choice.
