You globetrotters are in for a real treat! It's another recipe starring one of the loves of my life.....pasta. ;)

I love love loooooooove pasta. I love spaghetti, I love pesto, I love shells, rotini, cappellini, just everything! I don't like lasagna too much though.

The only problem with pasta is that it's very high in calories. :(

But! There is hope! I actually just found out about a no-calorie pasta. It's called Shirataki Miracle Noodle which is made of naturally water soluble fibre with no fat, sugar or starch. (You can check out their website: http://www.miraclenoodle.com/ - I think I might order mine at some point in the future ~ I will keep you guys posted as to how this actually tastes.)

Anywhooo, the recipe for today is going to be one that I am going to try and tackle tonight. I am trying to eat healthier, but today I decided to treat myself.

So, my choice for today's dinner is; Spaghetti Carbonara. I found this recipe on canadianliving.com ~ they have a tun of amazing recipes on there that you guys should definitely check out. So here are the ingredients and steps ~ bon appetit!
