 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1       lb           Thick-sliced bacon, diced
  2       tb           Salt
  1       lb           Linguini
  3                    Eggs
    1/3   c            Chopped Italian parsley
                       Grated Parmesan cheese
                       Fresh ground pepper to taste

 1.  Saute the bacon in a small skillet until crisp. Remove with a slotted
 spoon and drain well on a paper towel. 2. Boil the water and cook linguini
 until firm and tender. 3. Meanwhile, beat the eggs thoroughly in a large
 bowl suitable for serving. Have the cooked bacon and the chopped parsley
 ready at hand. 4. When the pasta is done, drain it immediately in a
 colander, and pour into the bowl of eggs and immediately begin tossing it.
 As the strands of pasta become coated with the beaten eggs, their heat will
 cook the eggs. 5. Sprinkle the bacon and parsley on, and serve immediately.
 This is great with lots of freshly grated Parmesan cheese and freshly
 ground black pepper.
