Bacon and Egg Pasta Carbonara – home cookin done right
Not only do I like blogging about local eateries but also talking about delicious recipe’s we find on the Internet. One of those is very easy to make, includes bacon and eggs, makes a ton of food and is dirt cheap. Pasta Carbonara is both delicious and cheap and very easy to make. All the things I love when it comes to making nightly dinners. So this recipe calls for one pound of bacon, one package of pasta, two yellow onions and 2-3 eggs. That’s it.
First up, 
throw the bacon into your trusty dusty pan and fry it up a bit. Traditionally you would use pancetta but we were short on that and went with good ole bacon.
Let that fry up for a bit and let the bacon flavor seep into the onions. While that is going on, start up your water for the pasta and put in some olive oil and salt. Let that go to a boil and just keep fryin up the bacon and onions. You can keep the heat on medium throughout the cooking of the bacon and onions.
When the pasta is done, throw it on top of the bacon and onions. Add 2-3 eggs, I did 3, and stir it all up. The eggs will cook in the pasta the more you stir it up. You can keep the heat on medium to make sure the eggs cook through.
When you are done, you’ll have the completed dish below. Total time to make this is around 20 minutes and it tastes great. My wife is always looking on the Internet for new low cost and very good dishes to try. You don’t have to spend a fortune to have a good, healthy and tasty dinner. This one has become one of our favorites. Give it a try and tell us how it went!
