One can of soup, pasta, and what's in your pantry make a quick supper that tastes like you took time. The bisque is silky and the pasta catches the bacon and garlic flavour; add a squeeze of lemon or vinegar if you have it to brighten the richness.

Cook mode

1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add 6 ounces of pasta; cook until just tender, stirring now and then. While the pasta cooks, pour the contents of one can of Campbell's bisque into a small pot and warm gently over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it is just beginning to steam, about 5 minutes.10 min
2. Drain the pasta and toss it with 1 tablespoon of oil, then divide between two bowls.
3. Pour the warm bisque over the pasta and taste; season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve right away.

Note Swap pasta for rice if you prefer, cooking it separately and spooning the bisque over the top. Leftovers keep refrigerated for up to three days and can be reheated gently on the stove, thinning with a splash of water if needed. A green salad or crusty bread alongside balances the richness.
