Recipe Introduction

After going through the other Pasta Carbonara recipes I found and listed on here, I came up with this one. It was delicious! Pasta Carbonara #1, (pasta w/bacon), easy*

8 ounces pasta of choice, (I used penne)
6 slices bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces,
...(I added a couple more slices)
3 Tablespoons chopped onion, (I just used a small one)
2 Tablespoons butter
6 Tablespoons Parmesan cheese
1 beaten egg
1 cup heavy cream
1 Tablespoon dried parsley

Cook pasta al dente to package directions. Meanwhile
cook bacon in skillet. Saute onion in the bacon fat.
Remove and set aside with bacon. Drain all but 1
Tablespoon of fat. Quickly stir in butter, cheese and
egg. Add cream and simmer on low heat for 3 minutes.
Add drained pasta, bacon, onion and parsley. Toss to
coat well.
Serve immediately.
Makes 2 servings. (I doubled this recipe)
