Who knew that you could find a great substitution for someting has unhealthy as Spaghetti Carbonara but Weight Watchers has done a good job. I made this for dinner a couple nights ago and it was a big hit, John even took it for lunch today.
It has 5 points per serving and it serves 6.
Ingredients:
8 oz uncooked whole-wheat spaghetti
4 slice(s) uncooked turkey bacon, diced (we used 4oz of lean ground beef instead and it was great)
2 medium leek(s), chopped (white parts only)
3 medium garlic clove(s), minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp table salt
1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly chopped
1 1/4 cup(s) fat-free skim milk
1 cup(s) fat-free egg substitute
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 cup(s) grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375ºF.
Cook spaghetti according to package directions (without added oil); drain and transfer to a 9-inch, deep-dish pie plate.
Meanwhile, cook bacon in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add leeks and garlic; cook 2 minutes. Stir in oregano, salt and pepper; cook 1 minute. Spoon bacon mixture evenly over spaghetti in pie plate.
In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, egg substitute, garlic powder and onion powder; pour over spaghetti mixture and sprinkle with cheese.
Place pie plate on a baking sheet and bake until filling is set and top is golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes. Cool slightly before slicing into 6 pieces. Yields 1 piece per serving.
