help! anyone got any great pork-free recipes for this? what sort of meat wd go well besides pork? eg beef, chicken or seafood?

turkey bacon?

got a recipe for me ameriscot?

I use streaky bacon or lardons, and don't conciously follow a recipe but something like this:

Fry up the bacon till crispy. Add cream (a cup or two) and let it reduce a little. Beat a good handful of parmesan cheese into a couple of eggs and add a little paprika.

Once the pasta is cooked and drained, mix in the cream mixture and the egg mixture, mixing well so that the eggs cook.

Don't use salted water for cooking the pasta or add any salt to the sauce until you've tasted it. The bacon and parmesan can be very salty themselves.
