This is a simple pasta dish made with tri colored rotini instead of the traditional spaghetti. Also in the traditional Spaghetti Carbonara, the pasta is removed from the heat before the eggs are added. I prefer to cook the eggs till they are done.
It is one of my quick go to meals, and Aditya loves to have it for lunch at school.
This is my entry for Presto Pasta Nights which is being hosted this week by Katie from Thyme For Cooking.
Ingredients
- 2 cups tri colored rotini
- 2 tbsp cooked bacon bits
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp oil
- salt to taste.
Method
- Cook pasta as per directions, drain and keep aside.
- Heat oil in a pan add the bacon and the pasta.
- Beat the two eggs well and stir into the pasta.
- Season with salt if required
- When the eggs start setting remove fro heat and serve hot.
Notes
- Makes 2 servings
- I ocasionally garnish with chopped fresh herbs and a little grated cheese for variety.

Carbonara is always a favorite…. And I love the idea of the tri-color rotini – both prettier and easier to eat
