Wonderful recipe. This was the first time I was making pasta carbonara for a picnic lunch and it turned out just right. I guestimated the amount of bacon and more would have been better but that was me, not the recipe. Make sure to get your timing right. My pasta was ready before I was, so I left it to sit in the water to retain its heat. Unfortunately this added "cooking" time made it overdone.

A very easy and tasty dish! Substituted diced prosciutto instead of bacon and added 1/2 cup of frozen baby peas to the pasta. Everyone enjoyed it!

I found this to be very bland. If I ever make it again, I'll definitely add fresh basil and oregano and maybe some sundried tomoatoes and mushrooms. I followed the directions and the sauce came out perfectly.

It was quick and easy. However, my family thought it was rather bland. I added a 1/2 peas and 1/4 c raisins.

This was so easy to make and very flavorful (great for bacon lovers)! I microwaved the bacon, so I think I had dinner ready in less than 20 minutes. Even my picky son liked it.

I cooked this for a classroom of kids of an "Italy" report my daughter was presenting and they ate it all up! I put in the pre-cooked bacon to save time and it is very true, as others say, the ingredients must be room temparature or it will not make the right sauce. I made it in haste a few days later and it was not all perfectly room temparature and it was grity as the sauce did not melt together. So, if you follow the instructions, it will be perfect!

This recipe was easy, inexpensive, and delicious! I added some some onion and garlic while the bacon cooked and it added a really nice flavor. I reheated it for dinner again tonight- just added a little milk to the skillet and it tasted just as great as the night before. I highly recommend this recipe :)

This was really good and extremely easy! A few changes I made: skim milk instead of heavy cream, less pasta (about 3/4 of the package), and added some steamed diced carrots to make it a bit healthier ;) I cooked the bacon in strips in the microwave oven and then cut them in small pieces. I heated the cheese-egg mixture for ~15 seconds in the microwave before pouring it with the noodles, because I was not quick enough and I had let my noodles cool down a bit. Even with the skim milk this was a very heavy dish.

Very good recipe. I added onion while the bacon was cooking to add more flavor. I left a box of frozen peas on the counter while I was cooking to let them thaw out a little and then just sprinkled some in at the end of the recipe. I doubled the amount of heavy cream but kept the amount of cheese and eggs the same. I left the eggs and cream on the counter for about an hour and they were still a little chilled so the pasta wasn't very hot. Make sure you leave enough time to let the eggs and cream sit out for a while. I used cheese tortellini instead of linguine.

Very good and heats well the next day. I too doubled the amount of sauce. I added diced chicken and threw in some cooked broccoli just to make it a little more healthier and it turned out wonderfully! Oh, and I made it with the tube noodles to make it fun. Will make it again as requested by my husband!

This was very good. I did double the amount of sauce to make sure I had plenty. My husband loved it, and took the leftovers to work to share with friends. This is definately worth making again.

This recipe was awesome. I did change it alittle bit though. Thought the first time around it was alittle dry. So increased eggs to total of 5 and increased heavy cream to half a pint, and added a full pound of bacon. Much better. I also either add diced chicken breast (grilled) or smoked sausage. Yummy!

This is a fool-proof restaurant quality dish, add shrimp or chicken and you have a meal. Great carbonara flavor! Very heavy, not for everyday.

"Heart attack on a platter" is what this dish was nicknamed. But we LOVE it!!! I added garlic and doubled the heavy cream, and cut eggs to 2. The garlic for flavor, the extra cream for "more sauce", and less eggs to worry about! Came out very yummy!

i just couldn't eat it because of all of the calories involved, but my son (18) requested it and loved it, ate the leftovers too. Personally I would have like to have seen a little more sauce
