carbonara

A recipe from this week’s meal plan based on the Spaghetti Carbonara in Everyday Food: Great Food Fast, modified to use what I already had on hand and only require one pot for easy clean up.

Ingredients:
6 slices of bacon, cut crosswise into strips
salt and pepper
1 package of pasta (approximately 1lb)
3 eggs
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup milk

Prepare pasta according to package. While the pasta is cooking, wisk together milk, eggs, and cheese in a small bowl. When the pasta is done, drain and cover the strainer with the lid to your pot to keep it warm. In the same pot you prepared the pasta, cook the bacon. Once the bacon is cooked, add the pasta back to the pot then pour the egg mixture on top and stir. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
