What you will need: 3 eggs, 1 cup Parmesan cheese, 1/2 pound bacon, 1 pound spaghetti
Heat a skillet and cut bacon into the pan. I like to use my kitchen shears to do this, but make sure you wash the shears when you're done. While the bacon is cooking, get a pot of water boiling and cook the spaghetti. In a small bowl crack the 3 eggs and beat well with a fork. Add the cheese and some pepper. Add red pepper flakes for extra heat. When the bacon is browned, drain off most of the grease. Drain you pasta, reserving a cup of the pasta water. Place the pasta in the pan with the bacon and toss to combine. I added some peas here. I think asparagus spears or broccoli would be tasty too. Remove the pan from the heat and immediately add the egg mixture. Stir and add the pasta water a little at a time to avoid the pasta sticking together.
Serve a green salad on the side and crusty bread.
