1. Fry the bacon in a pan. When bacon is done, drain on papertowels.
2. Keep the bacon grease in the pan. (Note: You can reduce the amount of bacon grease you use if you so choose, just keep enough so it doesn't get dry).
3. Put the tuna and garlic in the pan with the bacon grease and heat over medium heat - stirring occasionally. Do this for approximately 5 minutes.
4. Crumble the bacon strips and place back in the pan with the tuna & garlic.
5. Heat for another minute or two while boiling your angel hair pasta.
6. When pasta is done put into a large bowl and transfer your bacon & tuna mixture from the pan into the bowl of pasta.
7. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and black pepper (optional), toss all ingredients to incorporate all the flavors. Add a side of mushrooms.
