    I can't believe I haven't written a review for this yet. This is one of my absolute FAVORITE pasta dishes. I've lost count of how many times I've made it and it's been a hit every single time. I love that it is super easy and quick to whip up. Can't get enough of this dish!!

    This was amazing!!! My husband loved it and said it was better then the one he had at a restaurant. Its great to serve to guests because it seriously makes a ton. The lemon zest is pure genius - really adds a bright flavor to the heavy dish so please do NOT omit it. I added some mushrooms as well. It was so easy to make and I'm definitely adding this to my staple!

    This was the most delicious carbonara I've ever tasted!
    I used pine nuts instead of walnuts and I added a few handfuls of fresh spinach during the last few minutes of cooking to add some veggies. Toss to wilt. The lemon zest at the end adds a delicious light element to an otherwise heavy dish.

    Very very good. Added mushrooms to add more variety. Followed everything up to the lemon zest. Fed my 4 children, ages 20 to 4 years old. They love me even more.

    Very tasty and true to a carbonara sauce, don't leave out the lemon zest or walnuts, it adds a different dimension to this simple sauce. The only complaint was from my boyfriend who wished the sauce was more saucy, to fix that problem i recommend less noodles with the same sauce amount. Next time i would toss in a lot more basil, parsley and bacon. This made a TON of food!

    This was really really good. I don't usually like to make alterations on the first try, but I didn't have heavy cream on hand, so I used 2/3 cup skim milk and 1/3 cup butter.

    I like my food a little on the zippy side, so also used a dash of cayenne. would probably add more next time.

    I also think that this would be great with some shitake or portabella mushrooms.

    I didn't have any walnuts on hand, i think that would work well, but seems fine without too.

    Again, I didn't have fresh herbs on hand and had to use dried. Will definitely be more prepared next time, and think that with cream and fresh herbs, this will be a knockout. Can't wait to try again.
