    I really enjoyed this recipe and couldn't leave it alone before it hit the table! On the negative side though, it's definately a dish that needs to be served immediately. The longer it sits, the drier and less creamy it gets.

    This was easy to make and tasty but, I found that 3T of the cheese was not sufficient I added about 1/2 cup total. I found the pasta soaked up too much of the sauce and was a bit dry so I added some of the boiling pasta water to make it a bit creamier.

    I am just starting to cook for my boyfriend and I was so amazed that I was able to make something so good! My boyfriend was so impressed and said this was the best cabanara he has had because a lot of restaurants make it too creamy. I'm glad that I didn't add the heavy cream as some of the reviewers have said. I did however double the amount of cheese to 6 tablespoons and it tasted really good!

    This recipe is super easy and full of flavor. I used the chix broth instead of the wine. I added a little xtra cheese and some heavy cream. I also substituted basil for parsley.

    I really like this recipe mostly because it is one of the few carbonara recipes that doesn't use heavy cream. I would maybe use a little less pancetta as it was very salty, however over all it was excellent. Even better as left overs the next day at lunch time!!!

    This recipe is my favorite Rachael, I really wish I could serve this at my wedding instead of the traditional Penne al Vodka. I could it it all the time and never get tired. There are so many great things that can be add to jazz it up, but the original recipe is great.
