Begin by cooking the pasta in a large saucepan of boiling, salted water according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain the pasta and give it a quick rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Ensure the pasta is well-drained to avoid excess water in the salad.

While the pasta is cooking, heat a frying pan over high heat. Add the D'Orsogna Streaky Bacon and stir to ensure it cooks evenly. Let it cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until the bacon becomes wonderfully crispy. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel to absorb any excess grease.

In a large serving bowl, combine the cooked pasta, diced tomato, cubed avocado, fresh salad leaves (such as mixed greens or rocket), fragrant basil leaves, and the crispy bacon. Toss everything together gently, ensuring the ingredients are evenly mixed.

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, and mustard. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Mix well until the dressing is emulsified.

Drizzle the dressing over the salad, then toss everything again to coat evenly. Sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top for added richness and flavour. Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing, flavour-packed pasta salad!
