Super simple dish. Without bacon or any meat. Perfect for those who are abstaining from meat this Lenten season. This pasta dish only has 3 ingredients: eggs, cheese and the fettuccine. My kids loved it even without their beloved bacon. 🙂
Mix the eggs and the grated cheese in a bowl.
You may use just Parmigiano- Reggiano (parmesan cheese) or Pecorino cheese. I used both because I love them both happen to have them on hand 🙂
Add the egg mixture to hot pasta and you’re done! How easy is that? And it’s healthy, too.
Happy Cooking! 🙂
God Bless.
