Pasta with Eggs and Bacon – A Quick, Cheap, and Delicious Dish

Cook the Pasta: Boil the pasta in salted water according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Prepare the Bacon: While the pasta is cooking, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and set it aside, leaving a little bacon fat in the pan.

Cook the Eggs: In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them lightly with a pinch of salt and pepper. In the same skillet with the bacon fat, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, pour in the eggs and gently stir, allowing them to cook in a creamy, scrambled style. Don’t overcook the eggs; you want them to remain soft and slightly runny.

Combine Pasta and Eggs: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the scrambled eggs, tossing them together so that the pasta is coated in the creamy egg mixture.

Add Bacon and Parmesan: Stir in the crispy bacon and grated Parmesan cheese. Toss everything together until the cheese melts and the bacon is evenly distributed throughout.

Season and Serve: Adjust the seasoning with extra salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy the rich, creamy goodness!
