Pro Tip: While you have everything out, why not make two? One for baking. One for saving. Freeze. When it’s colder outside than it is in the icebox, take it out and bake it. Repeat every delectable bite.

Pro Tip: Want to get a little untraditional? Play around with the veggies. Swap spinach for bok choy, a nutritional choice. Mix in some winter squash. Or, switch up the pasta shape to Ditalini, our little thimbles of joy.

Twirlable, Cozy Pasta Dish: Spaghetti Carbonara With Peas

Spaghetti Carbonara might not seem like a typical winter pasta recipe. But then we would miss out on crispy, salty bacon bites. On a silky, twirl-worthy sauce. On winter’s sweetest legume, peas. This dish is designed for a night in (plus leftovers), wrapped up in a toasty blanket for two. Where the fire crackling inside welcomes the falling snow. And it only takes 30 minutes to make. Romantic and realistic.

Pro Tip: While a relatively easy recipe to make, there is one trick to carbonara that will save you from scrambling. Use room temp eggs. You’ll avoid having breakfast with your dinner.
