Wholewheat spaghetti gives this frittata satisfying heft, making it a filling main course. Because of the richness of the bacon, a small amount goes a long way, adding little bits of meaty goodness in every bite.

Ingredients

Wholewheat Pasta, dry

240 g, spaghetti

Bacon medallions, raw

60 g, chopped

Garlic

2 clove(s), finely chopped

Egg, whole, raw

8 medium, raw

Parmesan Cheese

25 g, grated

Calorie controlled cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas mark 4. In a pot of boiling water, cook the pasta to pack instructions, then drain.
  2. Meanwhile, mist a large frying pan with cooking spray and set over a medium heat. Add the bacon and cook for 5 minutes, until crispy.
  3. Using a slotted spoon remove the bacon. Add the garlic to the pan then reduce the heat and cook for 1 minute. Add the pasta and toss well then remove from the heat.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and 2 tablespoons of cheese, season with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs evenly over the pasta. Sprinkle over the bacon and the remaining cheese.
