Spaghetti with Pancetta & Breadcrumbs
At a time where NOTHING went to waste, not even stale bread. Nonna (grandmother) had to make sure dinner was delicious and there was enough food for family & friends.

Serves 2 - 4 depending on the amount of pasta you put. You'll need:
- 1 x pkt of Col'tempo Pancetta
- 1/2 clove of garlic
- Italian Mixed herbs
