• You can substitute pancetta with bacon if desired.
• For a vegetarian version, you can omit the pancetta and add saut茅ed mushrooms or roasted vegetables instead.

Storage and Serving

• Carbonara is best served immediately after cooking.
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, gently warm the Carbonara in a skillet over low heat, stirring occasionally.
• Add a splash of milk or cream to revive the creaminess of the sauce, if needed.
