As I'm trying to eat healthy - I love Slimming World recipes as they are still full of flavour and you don't even miss the unhealthy stuff!
This particular evening I decided to try the Spaghetti Carbonara, its so easy and only takes 20 minutes, making it the perfect after work dinner.
- 6 lean rashers of bacon, all visible fat removed (or Quorn bacon-style pieces - see tip)
- 4 eggs
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tbsp fat free natural fromage frays
- 2 level tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- Small handful of fresh chives
- 400g dried spaghetti
Method:
- Cook the spaghetti according to the packet instructions. Drain well and return to the saucepan.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick frying pan over a high heat.
- Add the bacon and dry-fry for 2-3 minutes, then turn off the heat.
- Lightly beat the eggs, season to taste and stir in the fromage frais, 1 tablespoon of Parmesan and most of the chives.
- Add the bacon to the drained spaghetti and mix well over a low heat, then remove from the heat and stir in the egg mixture.
- Toss thoroughly so that the eggs thicken in the residual heat, making a sauce that coats the pasta.
- Scatter over the remaining Parmesan and chives and serve hot.
I didn't have any chives so used Spring Onions - it was delicious and filling and I really enjoyed this dinner!
