Pasta, bacon, no tomatoes: any ideas

I have some pasta, onions and a small amount of bacon but no chopped tomatoes. Any ideas how I can do something non-disgusting without the tomatoes?

Could you make a cheese type sauce so.it is more like macaroni?

Carbonara surely?

Mmmm

Creme fraiche or philli / cream cheese?

Eggy bacon pasta. Crack a few raw eggs into cooked pasta and swirl in the pot till cooked (but not scrambled.) Food of the gods.

Carbonara:

Boil pasta
Fry bacon
Add together off the heat and then add a little bit of milk, cheese and an egg yolk. Stir them all in quickly. Add black pepper. Eat.

I like to add some garlic/garlic granules in at some point but it wasn't on your list...

Of course! Thank you! I have eggs, I have cheese, I have milk. I'm an idiot! You've saved dinner :-)

I feel you’ve got cheese I’d make cheese sauce, cook the onions low and slow until they’re sweet and cook the bacon until it’s crispy. Add the onions to the cheese sauce, stir through pasta, top with bacon and some grated cheese then brown under the grill.

That sounds lovely too @BluthsFrozenBananas
