INGREDIENTS

2 oz whole wheat spaghetti

1.5 oz nitrate-free pancetta

2 large pasture-raised eggs

3 large pasture-raised egg whites

3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

1 clove garlic

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.5 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  In a medium bowl, whisk together the pasture-raised eggs, egg whites, and grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.

• 3

  Heat a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced pancetta until it is golden and crispy.

• 4

  Stir the minced garlic into the skillet with the pancetta and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

• 5

  Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and add it to the skillet.

• 6

  Remove the skillet from the heat immediately to ensure the eggs create a sauce rather than scrambling.

• 7

  Slowly pour the egg mixture over the pasta while tossing constantly, adding reserved pasta water to reach a glossy consistency.

• 8

  Season the carbonara with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper before serving immediately.
