This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra garlic and pepper next time.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less pancetta and cream.

This is my new go-to pasta dish! It's so easy to make and always a hit with my family. The tortellini cooks up perfectly in the carbonara sauce, and the pancetta adds a nice salty flavor.

This tortellini carbonara is a real winner! The combination of tortellini, pancetta, and creamy carbonara sauce is just perfect. I loved that the tortellini cooked in the same pan as the pancetta, which infused it with so much flavor.
