Working time approx. 25 minutes; Total time approx. 25 minutes

quick to make, great for leftover pasta

Cook the pasta and drain, or use pre-cooked pasta. Halve the onion and slice into rings, very finely dice the bell pepper, and finely chop the cherry tomatoes. Lightly beat the eggs in a bowl, season with salt and pepper. Melt the herb butter and oil in a large pan, then add the bacon and fry gently over medium heat. After a few minutes, add the onion rings and diced bell pepper, allowing them to brown slightly. Then fold in the diced tomatoes and pasta and mix well. Season generously with paprika, pepper, nutmeg, Worcestershire sauce, and not too much salt. Simmer everything over medium heat for about 10-12 minutes. The pasta shouldn’t develop a hard crust. Remove the pan from the heat, sprinkle with the cheese, mix, pour in the eggs, and stir to set. The egg should remain creamy. Season again if desired and serve.
