Creamy Carbonara Pasta
Published: Monday, January 2, 2023
This creamy carbonara pasta is a classic Italian dish that is sure to please. It is made with bacon, parmesan cheese, and a creamy sauce that coats the pasta perfectly.
I first had this dish at a small Italian restaurant in Rome. It was served in a creamy sauce that was lightly flavored with garlic and bacon. The parmesan cheese added a nice salty flavor and the pasta was cooked perfectly. I have been making this dish ever since and it has become a favorite with my family and friends. Whenever I serve it, it is always a hit.
