INGREDIENTS
3 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
3 slices Lean Bacon
1 whole Egg
2 Egg Whites
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup of pasta water.
While the pasta cooks, heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the garlic clove (lightly crushed) and sauté until fragrant.
Add the lean bacon slices to the pan and cook until they become crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
In a bowl, whisk together the whole egg and egg whites until well combined.
Return the pasta to the pan over low heat. Slowly pour the egg mixture over the pasta, stirring continuously. Use the reserved pasta water to help create a smooth, creamy sauce.
Crumble the crispy bacon into the pan and gently fold it into the pasta and egg sauce mixture. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Serve immediately while warm, enjoying the perfect balance of textures and flavors.
