Spaghetti ala Carbonara

My take on a classic recipe.


Cook 1/2 pound of spaghetti, angel hair, or fettuccine. I recently switched to Dreamfield's. They make a variety of low glycemic pastas which are excellent. Make sure you cook the pasta al dente (slightly chewy when you fish a piece out of the pot and eat it).

While the pasta cooks:

Mix and set aside.

1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Saute 1/2 pound Spicy Italian Sausage.

When pasta is done drain and add to egg mixture while still hot. Toss quickly to cook the egg. Top with sausage and more Parmesan cheese.
