Fettuccini Carbonara
I made this recipe with what we had on hand, and it turned out delicious. I cooked it in a big stainless steel electric wok- which allowed me to easily toss everything together! First I used olive oil spray and omitted the shallots, but snipped 4 slices of bacon and fried it in the wok, adding 1 minced onion and 3 cloves of minced garlic. I also added the chopped leafy green portion of 1 bunch of bok choy. For pasta I used Barilla Plus Rotille (in the yellow box) and I cooked frozen soybeans with the pasta. After draining the pasta and adding it to the wok, I tossed in shredded Asiago cheese and finely chopped walnuts, and 4 whole eggs, tossing to mix everything together-- and served this with pan sauteed boneless chicken breasts. The flavor was amazing, my husband raved and even my toddler ate 2 plates full!! I used low-sodium bacon, and the flavor was incredible. I omitted the cream- the texture and sauce was just right without it, and milk would have been to runny (which was all we had.)
