Scrambled Pasta

Heat the oil in large skillet over medium heat and saute the green pepper, scallions and crushed red pepper, if using, until the vegetables are tender but not brown.

In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with the Parmesan and salt, then add to the skillet with the cooked spaghetti and basil. Toss gently over medium heat until the eggs are set.

Serve with grated Parmesan and crusty bread.

Tip: For perfect scrambled eggs, keep the heat low and cook gently. High heat breaks down the protein in eggs, creating dry curds and water instead of light, fluffy eggs.
