Easy and incredibly scrumptious! The eggs in this dish give it a creamy feel and taste without using heavy cream.  I could eat the whole thing, but I'll try to show some restraint. This is a great "what do I cook for dinner" recipe, as most of us have the ingredients on hand (or should). Great leftover too!<br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #e9ca84; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;">1 box spaghetti, cooked according to directions, drained reserving 1/2-1 cup pasta water<br />2 TBS good olive oil<br />4 ounces pancetta or  bacon, cut into small chunks<br />4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or pressed<br />2 large eggs<br />1 cup Parmesan, grated<br />pepper<br />handful of fresh parsley, chopped<br /><br />While the spaghetti is cooking, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pancetta (my vote) or bacon. Cook until crisp. Add garlic and  cook for 1 minute. Add drained pasta to the pan and stir to mix, about 2 minutes while still on the heat. Remove from heat.<br /><br />Beat eggs in a bowl and add Parmesan cheese. Beat to incorporate. Add egg mixture to the spaghetti and vigorously mix to gently cook the egg mixture without scrambling the eggs. Add hot past water until the consistency is creamy. Serve with additional Parmesan cheese.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #e9ca84; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="https://sites.google.com/site/stonegableprintablerecipes/home/pasta-carbonara-from-stonegable-s-kitchen">Printable Recipe</a></span><br /><br /><br /><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">THURSDAY</span></b><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b45f06;">Potato, Walla Walla Onion And Gruyere Galette</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b45f06;">Arugula, Shaved Parmesan, Pine Nuts With a Lemon Vinaigrette</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img height="628" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWGart4ApcirhKYdmu9Tyf8As4vkin000iDZ8MnpuGVjU7U-vPb48vtF8lVtK6CSK9N7PBdwZ0eMSAqh5qyTWsJyjdOnPot1OZI6Anx50GG9AloaqxdFGWFN9pA0AjlcX1_kmV5poF2jI/s640/2010_08_01_1170.JPG" width="640" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><a href="http://www.wiveswithknives.net/2010/08/02/potato-walla-walla-onion-and-gruyere-galette/">photo credit</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #783f04; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: x-large;">Recipe: Potato, Walla Walla Onion And Gruyere Galette</span></div><div style="text-align: left;">Are you drooling yet?
