How to Make High Protein Egg Spaghetti?

Step 1 – Cook the spaghetti

Boil water in a large pot, add a pinch of salt, and cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2 – Prepare the eggs

For this step, you have two different options. 1. You can whisk the eggs in a bowl with a pinch of salt, pepper, and grated parmesan. Or 2. You can put the egg in the veggies along with the garlic.

Step 3 – Sauté garlic

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30-60 seconds until fragrant. If you don’t have fresh garlic, you can use garlic powder later as a seasoning.

Step 4 – Add Veggies

Now add veggies and saute them well. Add little salt to speed up the cooking process and add some pepper too. If you want to make it creamy add some light cream and cheese once the veggies a 60% cooked.

Note: Don’t overcook the veggies.

Step 5 – Combine pasta and Veggies

Add the cooked spaghetti and eggs to the skillet and toss it continously for a creamy and silky sauce.

Step 6 – Serve and garnish

Top with extra parmesan, fresh herbs, and optional red pepper flakes. Serve immediately!

Alternative Cooking Methods

🔹 Oven-baked – Toss spaghetti and egg mixture in a baking dish. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes until slightly golden.

🔹 Stovetop scramble – For a heartier version, scramble the eggs with spaghetti directly in the skillet.

Vishal’s Recipe Tips

✅ Use hot pasta – To serve it hot and flavorful.
✅ Whisk eggs thoroughly – Prevents clumps and ensures a smooth texture.
✅ Toss continuously – Keeps the sauce silky without scrambling the eggs.
✅ Add veggies – Spinach, mushrooms, or peas make it extra nutritious.
✅ Serve immediately – Egg spaghetti is best fresh for creamy texture.

Storage Instructions

Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Reheat: Warm gently in a skillet or microwave, adding a splash of milk or water to keep it creamy.
