ingredients

1 lb thin noodles
4 eggs
¹⁄₃ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
salt (to taste)
¹⁄₄ teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons butter

directions

Cook noodles in a large pot of lightly salted water until al dente.
While the pasta is cooking, place the eggs, grated cheese, parsley, salt and pepper into a mixing bowl and beat with a whisk until well combined.
When the noodles are almost cooked, melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Quickly drain the pasta and add it to the skillet.
Toss briefly to coat it with the butter.
Add the egg mixture to the skillet and using a flat wooden spoon, mix quickly together for less than a minute until the eggs and noodles become creamy and thick.
Do not cook the eggs too long or they will scramble and ruin the dish.
Serve immediately.

This is a wonderful recipe and so simple, easy and delicious. I followed the directions except I used left over egg noodles which I put in the microwave to about 10 seconds. We enjoyed this recipe for breakfast with sides of bacon and fruit. Thanks Marie.

Marie, this is one of those recipes that I wish I had discovered twenty years ago - so simple and so good! I turned the heat off before adding the egg mixture and stirred until it seemed done, just a minute or two. I used dried parsley too, but the flavor was still delicious! By the way, I used egg noodles rather than thin noodles. Thanks for a keeper!

Super easy & delicious! I didn’t have parsley, so I used green onion. I also added a bit of roasted garlic to the butter before adding the noodles.

We were mixed on how we liked this. (Two 4-star and one 2-star). I thought maybe adding some type of veggie would be good (like sauteed mushrooms). I made this in combination with Recipe Zaar "Buttered Egg Noodles" and it was really buttery.

Excellent! I used dried cilantro instead of parsley and lemon pepper.
