Bacon and Shrimp Creamy Low Carb Pasta

I did this one back a few weeks before the wedding, turned out wonderful!! Going to  try this again soon and try chicken instead of shrimp.
 
Bacon and Shrimp Creamy Low Carb Pasta
1 box Dreamfield’s spaghetti or angel hair pasta, cooked al dente (I prefer the angel hair)
1 lb. bacon, diced
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
3/4 cup  parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 cup basil or Italian seasoning
1-1 1/2 lb. shrimp (I buy the frozen bags that the shrimp are already pealed and deveined and just defrost before using)
Sea salt and pepper to taste

 

Directions

1.  Using a large pan, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon to paper towels to drain and remove all but 1/4 or so cups of fat from pan. When bacon grease is hot again, add shrimp and cook until just opaque. Remove from pan. Wipe any remaining grease from pan.
