Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 4 slices sugar free bacon cut into ¼-inch dices
  • ¼ cup chopped onions
  • 3 cloves garlic or roasted garlic, click HERE to watch me make it
  • 1 batch Protein Sparing Noodles click HERE
  • Redmond Real salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Place the Parmesan and eggs into a medium bowl and use a fork to combine well. Set aside.
  • Fry the bacon in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat until starting to crisp. Remove half of the bacon pieces for garnish and set aside, keeping the bacon drippings in the pan.
  • Add the onions and garlic to the pan with the bacon drippings and cook over medium heat until the onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the protein sparing noodles and heat for 30 seconds (not too long or the noodles will fall apart). Turn off the heat.
  • Add the Parmesan mixture and stir until the cheese is melted.
  • Season with salt and pepper, tasting first to check the salt level, as the cheese adds quite a bit of saltiness to the dish. Garnish with reserved bacon and parsley if desired. Serve immediately.
  • I will be doing a demo of making my noodles on my Keto Italy Trip and we will have them for a stunning dinner! You should join me on the Italy trip! Adventure of a lifetime! Click HERE to find my events!
