Bacon, Avocado,Tomato Pasta

What's for lunch?
Sometimes I just look in the refrigerator to see 
what I can pull together for lunch.
 Today I found 1/2 of a tomato, 1/2 of an avocado, 
a few pieces of bacon, and a little leftover grated cheese. 
 All I needed to do was cook a little pasta, and
 Chop those few ingredients.
The rest of the ingredients I usually have on hand
 are: fresh basil from my garden, garlic, lemon juice, 
olive oil and s&p. Toss it all together.

Lunch is being served on the patio!

You don't need to follow the recipe exactly. 
It's just a guide. Use what you have. 
Just add your ingredients and toss.
