Enjoy a satisfying, versatile dish that melds the creaminess of rich egg sauce with the savory crunch of crispy bacon tossed with whole wheat pasta. This dish perfectly balances protein and flavor, making it a delightful option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Whole Wheat Spaghetti
2 Large Eggs
2 slices Turkey Bacon
1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat spaghetti in a pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a small amount of pasta water.
While the pasta cooks, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Crisp the turkey bacon slices in the same skillet until they are golden and slightly crispy. Remove the bacon, chop into bite-size pieces, and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and grated Parmesan cheese. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
Lower the heat to medium-low. Add the cooked pasta and fresh spinach to the skillet with garlic. Stir until the spinach wilts slightly.
Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the pasta, stirring continuously to create a creamy sauce. If needed, add a splash of reserved pasta water to reach desired consistency, ensuring the eggs do not scramble.
Fold in the crispy bacon pieces and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as desired.
Serve immediately, enjoying the harmonious blend of creamy, salty, and savory flavors.
