Keto Best Carbonara Pasta
This is the best Keto carbonara pasta you’ll ever make, and you’ll want to make it again and again! Good thing your Keto shirataki noodles don’t have any carbs in them, so you can make the dish for lunch multiple times a week. Shirataki noodles are mixed with classic carbonara ingredients: egg, egg yolks, parmesan cheese, and a little salt and pepper. Follow the directions for an easy traditional style of making carbonara. This recipe does include bacon, but you can easily omit that for a vegetarian pasta. Extra hungry? Include an additional protein. Carbonara can taste good with chicken, steak, pork, or even tofu. If you have fresh parsley on hand, chop it up and add plenty to garnish your pasta.
Make it a Keto Mother’s day lunch recipe
Who doesn’t love pasta? This year, make a Keto Mother’s day recipe mom will be asking about again and again! Of course, you can make Keto carbonara pasta for any special woman in your life. If you need a little more for lunch, try pairing the pasta with a Keto Superfood Caesar Salad or with a protein.
Where to buy shirataki noodles
If you’re at a grocery store, you may find shirataki noodles on the shelf with other gluten-free or specialty diet items. Shirataki noodles can also be refrigerated, so check if your refrigeration aisle has a vegetarian section. Shirataki noodles will usually be packaged in water in plastic packaging.
Please note, consuming raw or undercooked meats, poultry, seafood, shellfish, or eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness, especially if you have increased susceptibility (i.e., elderly, children, pregnant women, immunocompromised individuals).

25 min
Step 1
Cook strips of bacon in a pan on the stove until they’re crispy. Once the bacon has cooled, dice it into small pieces. Leave the bacon aside for now until the end of the recipe.Step 2
Drain shirataki noodles from their packaging and add them to a new pan on the stove. Cook the noodles on high heat until the excess moisture evaporates and the noodles dry out a little. Try not to overcook the noodles so they don’t brown.Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together any eggs and egg yolks with parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Keep the bowl near your stove while you add water to the pan of shirataki noodles. Heat the pan of shirataki noodles and water just until the water begins to simmer.Step 4
Now, while continually whisking the bowl of eggs and cheese, pour the pan of shirataki noodles and water into the bowl. Keep whisking to temper the eggs and get the noodles coated in sauce. Then, fold the chopped bacon into the carbonara. Give the noodles 5 minutes to absorb the sauce before you add more parmesan and black pepper (at your discretion to taste).
