Linguine with Bacon, Artichokes, Tomatoes and Feta

I had all these ingredients on hand so I made a pasta out of them. Super good.

8oz Linguine noodles
6 slices Turkey Bacon, chopped into 1/4" pieces
1/2 - 1 full can of artichoke hearts, drained and chopped.
2 handfuls grape tomotoes, halved
Feta cheese
2 Tbsp minced fresh Italian parsley
1 Tbsp butter
1/2 cup reserved pasta water
Pepper

In a large pot bring salted water to a boil. Add noodles and cook until al dente; drain, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water.

Mean while, in a large skillet cook bacon over medium high heat until beginning to crisp. Add artichokes and cook 1 -2 minutes. Add cooked noodles, tomatoes, Feta, butter and reserved pasta water. Toss altogether to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes, until a sauce is formed and all ingredients are coated. Add chopped parsley and fresh pepper to taste. Serve.
