Creamy carbonara, reinvented! Say goodbye to heavy cream and hello to light, fresh Greek yogurt. Harness mess-free bacon by microwaving strips in the Multipurpose Steamer. All the grease is trapped in the bottom, so clean-up is a breeze.


Ingredients
Preparation
  1. Cook noodles in a large pot according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water. Return spaghetti to pot over low heat.
  2. Meanwhile, lay bacon over Multipurpose Tray in Multipurpose Steamer. Cover and microwave on high 4–5 min, or until crispy.  
  3. Chop bacon. Stir chopped bacon and peas into drained noodles.   
  4. In medium bowl, whisk reserved pasta water, eggs, seasoning, and yogurt to combine. 
  5. Slowly pour egg mixture over noodles and toss to combine. Heat until just warmed through. Be careful not to overcook to avoid scrambling the eggs. Serve immediately.
