Easy, and only one pan.
The first time i made this, i thought it would never work. But surprise, it did, and it is really good.

Ingredients

15 minutes
4-6 servings
  1. 1 pounddry spaghetti
  2. 5 cupschicken broth
  3. 6 ouncesbacon, diced
  4. 4garlic cloves
  5. 2large eggs
  6. 1 cupgreen peas
  7. 1/2 cupheavy cream
  8. 3/4 cupgrated Parmesan cheese
  9. 1 tablespoonhot sauce
  10. 3 tablespoonsflat leaf parsley
  11. salt and pepper

Cooking Instructions

15 minutes
  1. 1

    A large saute pan is the best for this.

  2. 2

    Place the chopped bacon in the pan on medium heat.

  3. 3

    Cook bacon until crispy, then remove from pan to a paper towel to drain

  4. 4

    Chop your garlic, add to the pan. Cook about 30 seconds.

  5. 5

    Add chicken broth to pan. Increase heat to medium high.

  6. 6

    Bring broth to a boil.

  7. 7

    I like to break pasta in half, it seems to work better. Add pasta to pan. Adjust heat to keep broth at a low boil.

  8. 8

    Stir your pasta frequently so it doesn't stick together. Cook for about 6 minutes.

  9. 9

    While the pasta is cooking, mix the eggs, hot sauce (if using), cream and cheese together.

  10. 10

    Add green peas to pasta and stir in. You want the green peas to be done about the same time as the pasta. Bright green looks better also.

  11. 11

    Once the pasta is cooked, slowly stir in the egg/cheese mixture into the pasta.

  12. 12

    Almost all the liquid should be gone about this time, just a tiny bit remaining. Reduce heat to low, stir in chopped parsley.

  13. 13

    Stir for about 1 minute. Turn off heat, serve.

My wife is disabled, she has M.S. And she finds it hard to cook from her wheelchair. I like a variety of foods, but hate tomatoes, so you don't see too many of my recipes with tomatoes on them. Also both of us have type II diabetes, so high carb and sweet is usually not on the menu either. We have one married daughter, and one that now lives in the Seattle area. We live in Texas, USA with our two dogs.Sorry I have not posted in awhile. Been taking chemo and radiation. and it has taken some out of me. Doctor says it seems to be working, so there is that.
