Cooking Steps

Prep
1

Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. While water comes to a boil, roughly chop parsley. Halve tomatoes. Peel, then mince or grate garlic. Cut bacon crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces.

Cook spaghetti
2

Add spaghetti to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water (dbl for 4 ppl), then drain and return spaghetti to the same pot, off heat.

Start carbonara sauce
3

While spaghetti cooks, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add bacon. Cook stirring often, until bacon is cooked through and starting to crisp, 4-5 min. Add garlic, onions and peas to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring often, until slightly softened, 3-4 min.

Finish carbonara sauce
4

When veggies are softened, sprinkle flour over veggies and stir to combine. Cook, stirring often, until flour is golden-brown, 2-3 min. Stir in cream and reserved pasta water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium. Cook until sauce is slightly thickened, 3-4 min.

Make salad
5

While carbonara sauce thickens, combine vinegar, 1 tsp sugar and 1 tbsp oil (dbl both for 4 ppl) in a large bowl. Add tomatoes and spring mix. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.

Finish and serve
6

Add carbonara sauce and parsley to spaghetti in the large pot. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Divide spaghetti and salad between plates. Sprinkle Parmesan over top.
