Directions:
Cook pasta according to directions using 2-3 T salt in water. Cook to al dente (do not overcook)

While pasta is cooking, brown bacon tip desired crispness.

Put beaten eggs and pepper in large pasta bowl.

This is a family favorite from the time our kids were really small. It is often the dish we serve the first time someone comes to dinner - because it is a little different and EVERYONE likes it!
