Egg spaghetti – A super quick, healthy and delicious scrambled egg pasta that can be whipped up under 15 minutes. It’s the school holidays time for my boys and the last 3 weeks just passed away relaxing and having fun. So nothing much is making way to the blog. This egg pasta has been their long time favorite and I am sure most kids & grownups will love this.
This is inspired from the vegetarian Spaghetti Aglio Olio which I shared earlier. You can make variations to this by adding some mushrooms, shrimps or even shredded chicken.
This recipe does not need any cheese, butter or sauce. While the pasta cooks, make the garlic chilli oil, scramble the eggs and then toss the boiled pasta. With in minutes, a delicious bowl of spaghetti aglio olio with egg is ready.
You will be surprised at how simple and easy it is to make this egg spaghetti. While this is delicious on its own and needs no sides. But to include more dished to your menu serve this with tomato soup or garlic cheese toast on the side.
