Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving 1 cup of pasta water.

  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced turkey bacon and cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  4. Stir in the frozen peas and cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.

  6. Reduce the heat to low and add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the bacon and peas. Toss well to combine.

  7. Remove the skillet from the heat and quickly stir in the egg and cheese mixture, ensuring the pasta is evenly coated. If the sauce seems too thick, add some of the reserved pasta water a little at a time until you reach your desired consistency.

  8. Serve the Low Fat Pasta Carbonara hot, garnished with fresh parsley and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
