Step 1
In a large bowl or liquid measuring cup, combine eggs, mascarpone, and parmesan cheese. Set aside.
Step 2
Cook bacon in a large saucepan over medium heat until it becomes crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the bacon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate and set it aside. Drain excess pan from the pan leaving about 1 tablespoon of bacon grease.
Step 3
Bring large pot of water to boil. Add pasta and cook for 7-8 minutes, until al dente.
Step 4
In the meantime, cook the diced onions over medium heat in the bacon grease for a couple of minutes. Add garlic and red bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Step 5
When the pasta is done, drain, reserving a cup of the pasta water. Add two tablespoons of this water to the egg cheese mixture.
Step 6
Pour the hot pasta into the pan set at low heat. Immediately pour the egg cheese mixture on top, stirring continuously, until the pasta is well coated. If too thick, add some reserved pasta water until desired consistency is reached.
Step 7
Set aside a portion for baby. Add crispy bacon, more parmesan, and black pepper to taste.
