Boil pasta according to package instructions.
Fry bacon, crumble it up and set aside. You can also use
shredded chicken or turkey instead of bacon.
In a food processor add pecans, garlic, basil, Parmesan cheese,
olive oil and roasted red peppers. Pulse until everything together
until it turns into a paste. In a sauce pan, add the roasted red
pepper paste and start with 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Cook over
medium heat until it starts to boil; add mozzarella cheese and
remainder 1/2 cup of heavy cream if sauce is too thick. Cook
until cheese melts then add the penne pasta and bacon and toss
everything together.
Serve with some extra grated Parmesan cheese on top.
