INGREDIENTS
2 oz Whole Wheat Spaghetti (dry)
2 slices Turkey Bacon
1 large Egg
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 Tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 clove Garlic
Pinch Black Pepper
Pinch Salt
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat spaghetti in a pot of boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a small splash of pasta water.
While the pasta cooks, crisp the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until it becomes crispy, then crumble or chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg white, nonfat Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, a pinch of salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth.
Add the hot, drained pasta to the skillet with the turkey bacon. Reduce heat to low and pour the egg-yogurt mixture over the pasta. Toss quickly to coat the pasta, using reserved pasta water as needed to achieve a creamy consistency without scrambling the eggs.
Serve immediately while warm, garnished with extra black pepper if desired.
