Pasta Alfredo

5 oz uncooked linguini
1 1/2 oz cooked Canadian bacon, chopped
1 small red onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
6 Tbsp vegetable broth
1/2 cup fat free evaporated milk
1 tsp cornstarch
1 Tbsp water
3/4 oz grated parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp chives, chopped
1/8 tsp pepper

Cook pasta and drain.  Return empty pan to heat; cook onion and garlic, stirring, until onion is soft.  Stir in broth and milk.  Bring to a boil, stir in combined cornstarch and water.  Simmer, uncovered, until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.  Add pepper.  Just before serving, add pasta and cheese to sauce.  Cook, stirring, until cheese is melted, about 2 minutes.  Serve pasta topped with bacon and chives.

Serves 2
