From what I’ve researched, there is always bacon or pancetta and parmesan cheese is a MUST. While googling carbonara the question “is spaghetti carbonara good for you?” popped up… Continue reading Avocado Carbonara
Hello! Brace yourselves. I’m not posting a recipe. But by the end of this blog I think I will have convinced you to go to New Orleans.
