One Pot Spaghetti Carbonara

This is becoming a tradition when we leave Hannah's family farm - a pasta before we hit the road - we have come to call it 'breakfast pasta' - as it is perfect for a late brekky and it's made with bacon and eggs!

This time I decided to cook it all in one pot - as we had delicious leg ham so it didn't need cooking like bacon. When the pasta was cooked and drained, back in the pot I tossed though the shredded ham, 3 lightly beaten eggs and heaps of parmasen cheese and butter. Stirred this threw and when the eggs were all creamy I threw in halved grape tomatoes and parsley. Topped with a bit more cheese and parsley - a drizzle of olive oil, I think this was the best one I had cooked. But then again, eating it on the verandah of a farm in the hunter valley may have had something to do with it.
