    This pasta dish looks so refreshing. Bacon in anything tastes great, so I cannot imagine this dish tasting anything but excellent.

    Hi

    Can you use milk for heavy cream

    1. Giangi Townsend says:

      Hi Christin, Unfortunately, no, not the same consistency, and it will not whip up.

    2. Giangi Townsend says:

      Hi Christin,
      yes you can, but make sure you put some corn starch or flour to thicken the sauce
