INGREDIENTS
2 oz whole wheat spaghetti (dry)
0.75 oz lean pancetta
1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
2 large egg whites
1 tsp olive oil
2 tbsp fresh basil
2 tbsp fresh parsley
1 clove garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add finely minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the lean pancetta to the skillet and fry until it becomes crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and crumble into small pieces.
In a bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt and egg whites until smooth. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Combine the drained spaghetti with the yogurt mixture in a large bowl, stirring well until the pasta is evenly coated.
Fold in the crispy pancetta along with freshly chopped basil and parsley. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve immediately while warm, garnished with extra herbs if desired.
