This easy pasta dish is perfect for those evenings when you want something comforting but quick to make. Combining breakfast flavors with dinner vibes, it’s a fun twist that the whole family will enjoy.
Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti until it’s just firm to the bite, about 8 minutes, stirring now and then. Drain and set aside. While the pasta is cooking, fry the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning it occasionally so it browns evenly. This should take around 10 minutes. Once crispy, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble it up when it’s cool enough to handle. Leave the bacon drippings in the pan.

Saut Onions and Garlic
Next, add the green onions and garlic to the skillet with the bacon drippings. Cook over medium heat until the onions start to soften, about 5 minutes. Toss the drained spaghetti into the skillet and stir everything together. Slowly pour in the beaten eggs, stirring constantly to scramble them with the pasta. This should take 1 to 2 minutes.

Season and Mix
Season the mixture with salt, pepper, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. Keep stirring until everything is well combined. Finally, fold in the diced tomatoes, give it one last mix, and serve while it’s warm.

Cook's tip
