Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Slice bacon into thin slices and cook on stove top until cooked. Drain bacon from grease on paper towels and set aside. Reserve some grease for cooking onions in step 2.

  2. Chop onion finely and cook diced onion in a reasonable amount of bacon grease (1 or 2 tablespoons) for 2-3 minutes over medium-high constant stirring to avoid burning.

  3. Slice the garlic and add it to the onions, after the onions have cooked for a couple of minutes. Cook garlic and onion together for 2 more minutes and remove them from the pan, using slotted spoon. Discard the grease.

You can try to temper the egg/cheese mix by slowly drizzling in a little pasta water as you are beating it into the egg mix-before adding the pasta-bringing the “sauce” to the temp of the pasta so that the hot pasta doesn’t cook the egg
