PREPARATION

  • 1

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente.

  • 2

    While the pasta is cooking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook until crispy. Once done, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and chop into bite-sized pieces.

  • 3

    In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the baby spinach and cook until just wilted.

  • 4

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and grated Parmesan cheese with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  • 5

    Drain the pasta, reserving a small splash of the pasta water. Return the pasta to the skillet with the spinach and garlic. Remove from heat, then slowly pour in the egg and Parmesan mixture while stirring vigorously to create a creamy sauce that coats the hot pasta without scrambling the eggs.

  • 6

    Stir in the chopped turkey bacon and, if needed, add a little pasta water to adjust the consistency of the sauce.

  • 7

    Season with additional salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
