Ingredients

1 pound of tortellini
6 slices of bacon, diced
3 cloves of garlic, minced
2 eggs
1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

Cook the tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and parmesan cheese. Set aside.
Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet with the garlic and bacon fat. Stir to combine.
Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the tortellini, stirring quickly to coat the pasta. The heat from the pasta will cook the egg and create a creamy sauce.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the cooked bacon.
Serve the tortellini carbonara with a sprinkle of chopped parsley on top.
