A fun gluten free cheesy rice carbonara to hug you with dinner love!
When life gets crazy we get cheesy! Sometimes a big bowl of comfort food is the way to make your soul smile. To me pasta and Italian comfort food is all about sweatpants and fun with friends and family. We have pasta nights with our friends and it is a carb happy fun but my friend Nancy is gluten free. I wanted her to join in with equally delicious dishes I came up with this carbonara. Truth be told I end up scooping it up more then pasta lol! When life hands you cheese make dinner lol! Cheers to recipes that inspire and celebrate you!
