Instructions
1 In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, salt and pepper. 2 Cook bacon in a large skillet until crispy, then crumble into small pieces. Remove bacon grease from pan then add bacon back into large skillet. 3 Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and reserve pasta water on the side. Immediately add pasta to toss with crumbled bacon, along with frozen peas. Turn off heat. 4 Stir in egg mixture, adding pasta water 1 tablespoon at a time until desired creaminess. The cooked pasta and warm pan will help cook the eggs, but it should not curdle! 5 Add more salt and pepper to taste! Top with red pepper flakes and sprinkle with parmesan/nutritional yeast if desired!View original recipe
