A carbonara is a very quick and easy pasta. I like the addition of peas for some extra color. Swapping chicken for the bacon – or having both! – is good too. The only thing is that being a creamy sauce, it’s maybe not the healthiest – tomato based sauces are usually healthier.

Ing yum, I love a good carbonara

yes please. One of my favorites

Another yummy fave of mine, mushrooms instead of peas for me though

Spaghetti carbonara is one of my favorite dishes. Will be making this recipe this weekend.

Oh my gosh, you are now making me hungry!

This is a fave in our house with a different recipe. I’m definitely up for trying this one though – all new pasta options are always welcome.

This is my favourite spaghetti dish – but would only have it about once a year as I really don’t like pasta.

Not the most healthy recipe with just a little vegetables and such large amount of cream.

Cabonara is a favourite in this house. Sounds like a great recipe. Thanks for sharing.

My mouth is watering already. So simple yet so delicious

Great looking recipe going 2 try this one because I love Spaghetti

What a lovely recipe!

I prefer more veggies in pasta recipes but thanks for sharing.

I have a couple of carbonara recipes and I love them. Especially the lower fat version that uses light ham instead of bacon, and lite evap cream. Funnily enough, the recipe someone gave me had the eggs in the ingredients but didn’t explain what to do with them. I now know to beat it and mix it through near the end, while it’s still heated, but nearly ready to serve. Love a good carbonara.

Love a good carbonara!
Just wondering what to do with the two eggs though…

So much easier and simpler than the version I make – must try this and compare.

Spaghetti C is a wonderful pasta dish and thanks for your recipe for your version.
