Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Cook the pasta according to packet instructions then drain.
Meanwhile, cut the bacon into 1 inch square pieces. Put in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Cook, stirring regularly, until golden.
Roughly slice the mushrooms and add these to the frying pan. Peel and chop the onion - add this too. Continue to cook for 6-7 more minutes, stirring regularly.
Turn the heat down to low and add the cream. Season with salt and pepper.
Combine the sauce and pasta. Serve immediately.

Notes
Storage and Reheating
You can make this ahead if needed and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days.To reheat:
warm gently in a pan over a medium-low heat until hot through
or microwave individual portions until piping hot
You may want to add a splash of water, milk or cream when reheating to loosen the sauce.Because it contains cream, it’s definitely at its best fresh, but leftovers are still very good.
