INGREDIENTS
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta
3 slices Turkey Bacon
1 Large Egg
2 Large Egg Whites
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the turkey bacon slices and cook until crispy, then remove and chop into pieces.
Lower the heat and add the olive oil and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
In a bowl, whisk together the whole egg and egg whites. Stir in the grated Parmesan and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Add the cooked pasta and fresh spinach to the skillet with garlic. Toss until the spinach wilts slightly.
Remove the skillet from heat and quickly pour the egg mixture over the pasta, stirring continuously to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
Mix in the crispy turkey bacon pieces, adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if necessary, and serve immediately.
