One of Grant’s favourite pasta dishes is tortellini carbonara. I found a recipe for carbonara sauce from Donna Hay that looked pretty easy to make so I decided to cook it for Grant on Valentine’s Day this year. And because I love broccoli, I added that to the sauce … and used gluten-free spaghetti for a really delicious main course. It was a winner for the whole family!
