This is my go-to recipe for carbonara. It's simple, delicious, and always a hit with my friends and family. Plus, who doesn't love bacon? This dish is best made with thick-cut bacon, but you can use whatever type you have on hand. I also like to add a bit of red pepper flakes to give it a little bit of a kick.
