Garlic Mushroom Pasta

My mom used to make this for me as a kid. It is easy to whip up and can be modified. Change the veggies, add some bacon, use less garlic, whatever. Sometimes I've used one egg and stirred in some margarine (or butter or olive oil) but I like it best like this. This is sized as smaller servings, almost as a side dish size.

Ingredients

• 2 eggs, beaten
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 8 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 teaspoon olive oil, or as needed
• ½ large onion, diced
• 1 (12 ounce) package spaghetti
• 5 large mushrooms, sliced
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, mushrooms, and garlic in hot oil until onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add about 1 teaspoon olive oil to keep spaghetti from sticking. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and transfer hot spaghetti back to pot.

Step 3

Stir eggs into spaghetti; allow heat from spaghetti to cook the eggs. Stir onion and mushroom mixture and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese into spaghetti over low heat until eggs are fully cooked and cheese is melted. Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese.
