This is a real nice to to recipe, since usually I have most of these ingredients on hand. Other than using low-fat butter this made for a great lunch. I don't know what it is with kids and spaghetti, but they really enjoyed this. Made for a Great Lunch. Made and tagged in PRMR tag.

A nice carbonara type dish. I prefer using bacon, and also used low fat cream to keep the old calories down a bit. I didn't need to cover mine to get the eggs to cook, just tossed it around well and the hot pasta did the job. A good weekday family supper, that we all enjoyed. Made for PRMR.

I liked it and so did my husband and kids. I used bow tie pasta and added salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Very good.

We've made this recipe for years. We substitute diced cooked bacon for the ham. I use a glass covered Correlleware dish. to keep the heat in It should take 3-5 minutes to cook IF you add all the ingredients when they are piping hot and keep it covered. If the eggs are undercooked, finish cooking in the microwave.
