This recipe is a fail. The sauce did not come together properly and the pasta was undercooked.

This is the worst carbonara I've ever had. The sauce was watery and the pasta was overcooked.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The sauce was a little too thick for my liking.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and pepper next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out really runny. I think I might have added too much milk.

I love that this recipe uses Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream. It makes the sauce lighter and healthier, without sacrificing any of the flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of carbonara, but this recipe changed my mind. The sauce is so creamy and flavorful, and the pasta is cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover pasta. I also like to add some chopped vegetables to the sauce, such as broccoli or zucchini.

This carbonara is a game-changer! It's so light and flavorful, yet still satisfying. I love that it uses Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream, which makes it a healthier option without sacrificing any of the taste.
