Carbonara Sauce
Carbonara sauce is typically high in fat, but replacing the pancetta or bacon with leaner Canadian bacon, using nutritional yeast instead of parmesan and light canned coconut milk instead of cream make it not only leaner, but dairy free!
3 grams olive oil spray
200g Canadian bacon
3 cloves fresh garlic
150 grams whole eggs (3 large)
120 grams light canned coconut milk
20 grams nutritional yeast
1.5 grams fine pink or sea salt
1.5 grams ground black pepper
1. Lightly spray medium hot pan with olive oil. Dice and sauté Canadian bacon and garlic until lightly brown.
2. Whisk the eggs, coconut milk, salt, peppe, and nutritional yeast in a bowl.
3. Add your noodle substitute of choice into the bacon and garlic to heat through. Add the egg mixture into the pan and mix together until the liquid is cooked. Serve immediately!
