pure carbs carbonara

A comforting twist on the classic Roman Carbonara, using spiral fusilli pasta which perfectly catches the rich, silky sauce made from eggs, hard cheese, and savory cured pork. This 'pure carb' delight is finished with a generous amount of freshly cracked black pepper for that signature bite.
