INGREDIENTS
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (56g)
3 slices Lean Turkey Bacon (24g)
2 large Eggs (100g)
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese (5g)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (30g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
1 clove Garlic
1 dash Black Pepper
1 pinch Salt
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the lean turkey bacon slices to the skillet. Cook them until slightly crispy, stirring occasionally.
Once the bacon is cooked, add the fresh spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing to combine with the bacon and spinach.
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, a dash of black pepper, and a pinch of salt.
Pour the egg mixture over the pasta, stirring quickly and continuously to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
Cook over low heat for another minute until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the pasta.
Serve immediately and enjoy your protein-packed, creamy pasta carbonara.
