4 oz chorizo, sliced
1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, cook the sliced chorizo over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the Brussels sprouts. Pour the egg and Parmesan mixture over the spaghetti. Toss to coat the pasta evenly.
