Pasta Carbonara With Mushrooms Recipe I love pasta. Let me rephrase – I LOVE PASTA – and this Pasta Carbonara with mushrooms recipe is going to be as big a hit in your home as it is in mine. There are lots of ways to tinker with it, so go with the basic recipe and add or subtract as you wish! To make things a bit healthier, you can opt for turkey bacon instead of regular bacon, whole wheat pasta instead of white pasta or 1% milk instead of cream/higher fat milk. Do what works best for your family, but you’re going to love it!

Pasta Carbonara With Mushrooms Recipe A few things to remember about this Pasta Carbonara with mushrooms recipe – first, you’ll want to make sure that the pasta is al dente. Don’t overcook or you’ll find everything to mush together a bit more than you’d intended.

Pasta Carbonara With Mushrooms Recipe Also, after you drain the pasta, you’ll want to keep about 1/2 cup of that boiling water to use later in the recipe. Don’t dump it all out without thinking! I know we’ve all done that, so it’s important to remember!

Pasta Carbonara With Mushrooms Recipe Lastly, when you’re adding the egg, do it some at a time so as not to make scrambled eggs. You want to cook and coat, not make a second dish! Once you’re done, serve this right away. It’s always best went hot! Enjoy! Ready for more deliciousness? Read more of my recipes!
