Ingredients:

2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
10g
1/3 cup peas
20g
1/4 tsp black pepper
0.52g
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
5g
8 oz whole-wheat pasta
230g
2 eggs
110g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Cook the Pasta:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the whole-wheat pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
3. Prepare the Egg Mixture:
In a medium-sized bowl, beat the 2 eggs. Add 1/4 tsp of black pepper to the eggs and mix well.
4. Combine Pasta and Eggs:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the beaten eggs and black pepper mixture. Stir until the pasta is well coated.
5. Add Peas and Parmesan:
Add 1/3 cup of peas and 2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese to the pasta mixture. Mix well until everything is evenly distributed.
6. Transfer to Baking Dish:
Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or a little oil. Transfer the pasta mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
7. Top with Parmesan:
Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of grated parmesan cheese over the top of the pasta mixture.
8. Bake:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and the bake is heated through.
9. Serve:
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Mom's Parmesan Peas and Noodle Bake!

Tips:

- Cook the whole-wheat pasta until it is just al dente, following the package instructions, to ensure it doesn’t become too soft during baking.

- Thaw frozen peas by placing them in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes before draining and adding them to the dish.

- To avoid curdling, temper the eggs by slowly adding a small amount of the hot pasta water into the beaten eggs while constantly whisking.

- For an extra crispy topping, consider adding some breadcrumbs mixed with additional parmesan cheese before baking.

- Let the bake rest for a few minutes after taking it out of the oven to allow the flavors to meld and the dish to set properly before serving.
