Pasta Carbonara with Bacon

Fast and easy... not too much fat. LOVE me a little decadence sometimes!

6 oz uncooked fettuccine or spaghetti
4 slices bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces (turkey bacon is also good and cuts down on the fat)
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 egg
3/4 cup skim milk
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
3/4 cup chopped plum (Roma) tomato (1 medium)
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions (8 medium)
1 container (6 oz) Greek Fat Free plain yogurt
