Fill a pot with water and turn on high to boil. Add a dash of salt and some olive oil.
Put your chopped bacon into a large pan or dutch oven. Let it cook in its own grease until crispy.
Grate 1 cup parmesan and set aside. Beat 2 eggs + 1 egg yolk in a separate bowl; set aside.
When the bacon is done, spoon it out of the pan and set aside on paper towels. Leave bacon grease in the pan to use later.
Once your water is boiling, add spaghetti noodles and cook according to the box for al dente (around 10 minutes).
Add parmesan to egg and mix.
When the pasta has about 2 minutes left, heat up the bacon grease on low.
Add cooked and drained pasta to the pan with bacon grease using a spaghetti spoon.
Mix/toss noodles in the grease to coat so that the noodles are oiled; this will keep the noodles from sticking together.
Add cooked bacon to the egg/parmesan mixture and then add to the noodles. Mix well.
Plate and grate parmesan over the top of your pasta. Serve warm.
