- 150 g Bacon Use thick cut, regular bacon
- 5 whole eggs
- 1.5 c fresh grated parmesan
- 1 teaspoon black pepper Freshly ground, plus more to taste

- Put a large pot of generously salted water on high to boil for pasta.
- Meanwhile cook the bacon over medium-low heat to desired doneness and turn heat off.
