Author Notes

Well, as long as you can call low carb, chickpea-based spaghetti a "noodle," which I do. A slight twist on a classic, adapted for lower carb and no added sugar, inspired by Tony, my golden dragon. —Brian Coppola

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 1 serving of chickpea pasta (spaghetti), cooked, rinsed cold, and set aside
  • 2 tablespoons low salt light soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons low salt dark soy sauce
  • 4 tablespoons Chinese cooking wine
  • 1 tablespoon sweetener (Swerve granular)
  • 3 slices thick bacon, chopped
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables, rough chopped (I used carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower, here, but use bell pepper, onion, sprouts, too)
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 egg
Directions
  1. Cook the pasta and set aside.
  2. Make the sauce (soy, soy, sweet, wine) and set aside.
  3. Cook the bacon to nearly crispy in a hot wok.
  4. Add the vegetables to the bacon and stir fry until the cauliflower picks up some browning.
  5. Coat the bottom of a small fry pan with oil, add the egg. Place over medium heat (this is the way to fry an egg without charring it). Remove from heat when done.
  6. Add the garlic. Stir for a few moments. Add the pasta. Stir for a few moments. Add the sauce. Stir well over medium high to high heat for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to medium (medium-low), frequently stirring, and reduce the liquid.
  7. Transfer to a bowl and add the egg.
