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!

200g Canadian bacon

3 cloves fresh garlic

150 grams whole eggs (3 large)

120 grams light canned coconut milk

20 grams nutritional yeast
