Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast offers a cheesy flavor with fewer calories

bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

Boil water in a large pot and add Samyang noodles; cook until al dente, about 4-5 minutes.

Drain noodles and reserve a bit of the cooking water.

In a pan, cook bacon over medium heat until crispy; remove and set aside.

In the same pan, sauté minced garlic in bacon fat until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add the cooked noodles to the pan with garlic and mix well.

Stir in buldak sauce and mix until noodles are evenly coated.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, and grated parmesan cheese.

Remove the pan from heat and quickly stir in the egg mixture, mixing until creamy; add reserved pasta water as needed.

Add cooked bacon and chopped green onions; mix well.

Season with black pepper and salt to taste; serve immediately.
