Description
This quick, easy dish is delicious. It can go from pot to plate in under fifteen minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 box (13 1/4 Oz. Size) Linguine
- 2 whole Eggs
- ½ teaspoons Crushed Red Pepper
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
- ½ teaspoons Garlic Salt
- 1 cup Bacon Bits
- ½ cups Parmesan Cheese
Preparation
First, boil pasta according to package instructions. I always add a dash of salt and approximately 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the water before I start it boiling. This will help keep the pasta from sticking together.
While pasta is boiling, beat eggs, crushed red pepper, milk, and garlic salt.
Once pasta is finished, drain but reserve 2 tablespoons of the water to add to the egg mixture. Make sure you do not rinse the pasta. (Rinsing the pasta cools it, which you never want to do with a dish you will serve hot. More importantly, if you rinse the pasta, your sauce will no longer stick to it.)
After pasta is drained, add bacon, cheese, and egg mixture. Stir thoroughly and plate. You can garnish with a light dusting of Parmesan cheese.
Note: On occasion, I mix in peas (usually just warm a package of frozen peas) or some sundried tomatoes just to add a little extra flavor.
