Breakfast Spaghetti - Camille Zaleski King


My mom used to make this for breakfast if we had left over spaghetti from the night before. Now I make it for my son, he loves it. It is so simple, it doesn't seem like a real recipe.

Breakfast Spaghetti

  • 3 - 4 cups Spaghetti (any pasta will work spaghetti is best)
  • 2Tbs butter or olive oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
  • salt and pepper to taste



Put butter/oil in a frying pan, add spaghetti. Let it cook until spaghetti starts to get a little crispy in some parts. 
While spaghetti is cooking fork wisk eggs in a bowl, then add to the frying pan with the spaghetti. 
Stir until the eggs are cooked. 
Take off the heat and add parmesan cheese and salt and pepper.

Enjoy.
