INGREDIENTS

2 oz whole wheat spaghetti

1 oz pancetta

1 oz smoked turkey breast

1 large egg

0.5 cup liquid egg whites

2 tbsp parmesan cheese

1 cup zucchini noodles

1 clove garlic

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.

• 2

  While the pasta cooks, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the diced pancetta and smoked turkey, sautéing until the pancetta is golden and crisp.

• 3

  In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, liquid egg whites, and grated parmesan cheese until the mixture is well combined and smooth.

• 4

  Add the minced garlic and zucchini noodles to the skillet with the pancetta, sautéing for just 1-2 minutes until the zucchini is slightly softened but still firm.

• 5

  Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and add it directly to the skillet, tossing with the meat and zucchini.

• 6

  Remove the skillet from the heat source immediately; slowly pour in the egg mixture while tossing the pasta constantly with tongs to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.

• 7

  Thin the sauce with a splash of the reserved pasta water if needed, then season with sea salt and plenty of black pepper before serving.
