Creamy Pasta Carbonara is very easy to make and even the pickiest of people will be coming back for more!
For a lower fat version, try using Skim Evaporated Milk (the milk in the can) – gives it a nice creamy texture without the huge fat content.
Greek Yoghurt is another really great substitute to use instead of the cream.
