This is a classic Italian dish that I can remember eating since I was a little girl. The beauty of this meal is the speed at which it can be prepared. The recipe calls for 4 whole eggs, however, I usually cut the yolks in half by using 2 whole eggs and 4 egg whites. The meal packs a ton of protein, calcium and fiber.
1 package spaghetti .99
1 cup frozen peas .503 slices turkey bacon .40
1 small onion chopped .25
2 whole eggs, 4 egg whites .50
1/2 cup parm cheese .40
salt and pepper to taste
Total: $$ 3.04
Cook pasta according to the directions. Three minutes before pasta is supposed to be done, add the green peas to the pot.
Meanwhile cook bacon in a large saucepan on medium- high until crispy. remove bacon from pan and discard all except 2 teaspoons of drippings. Add onion to the pan and saute for 3 minutes in the leftover drippings.
Beat eggs, drain pasta and peas, and toss beaten eggs and pasta in sautee pan with onion.
Saute for 3 minutes.
Toss with crumbled bacon pieces and cheese.
s &p to taste
My family loves spice, so we all always add red pepper flakes.
I tried this meal and it was very tasty and delicious. It had good flavor and the bacon and peas were something I had never thought of putting in pasta but it was very good.
