This is a modern twist on an old Italian classic recipe. This is easy and delicious!
Ingredients:
4 Slices of bacon, cut into pieces
1/2 zucchini, diced
1/2 yellow squash, diced
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 teaspoon lemon rind
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon fresh parsley
1 clove garlic finely chopped
2 eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
1/2 pound spaghetti or any other pasta
Heat water to boil the pasta and cook until al dente.
Brown the bacon until golden brown, add garlic, zucchini, yellow squash and mushrooms, cook until tender.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, add the cream, cheese, thyme, parsley and lemon rind. Whisk all together. When the vegetables are tender, let sit for about a minute then add to the egg mixture. Drain the pasta and pour into the bowl with the vegetable and egg mixture. Mix together until creamy. Add some extra pasta water if needed to thin out the mixture.
NOTE: Make sure the you DON'T cook the mixture over the heat, as it will turn into scrambled eggs and you don't want that!!
Serve with a nice salad and a glass of wine!
