Tip
There are many adaptions you can make to this recipe.
Add 100-200g of your choice of vegetables (mushrooms, zucchini, carrot, brocolli, cauliflower, capsicum) with the onion and garlic and chop/saute.
Replace onion and garlic with chives, green spring onions and parsley/herbs for a low FODMAP version.
Replace fettucine with a firm gluten free fettucine (e.g. San Remo, not a corn based one) for gluten free.
Replace fettucine with another pasta shape if desired.
Remove chicken and bacon for a vegetarian dish (skip the step where you saute the chicken for 3 mins).
If you like a runnier "saucier" dish, add an extra 200g of milk and an extra 10g of cashews.

I didn't put the MC in and was a bit concerned it was going to overflow but turned out amazing. Used soy milk and it was delicious! Got the approval from my DF/GF husband. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing! I’m so picky with food and my daughter is intolerant so I’m trying to make food we can all eat. It was great! I added tasty cheese to mine after dishing out bubs and loved it
This is one of our regulars, the whole family enjoys it.
I add 2 extra garlic cloves instead of the onion, I also do the gluten free version and frequently add vegies.
Thank-you.
Return of the Jodi.
My husband hated it, he said the cashews made the sauce gritty and the pasta needed longer time. Fortunately the kids ate it under protest. It wont be on my must make again list even though my daughter can't have dairy.
My fussy two year old loves it! I pureed the whole sauce (cause you know...lumps!) and cooked the pasta separately and it's perfect. Used normal milk as this isn't as issue for us, I just wanted to up the nutritional value with cashews instead of cream. Also added zucchini. It's a hit!
I quite enjoyed this. I left the mc off as someone instructed and worked beautifully. Tasted just like packet carbonara .. I also added Parmesan to hubbies at the end so he found it more authentic.
Great recipe! Only I chopped the bacon myself, then fried it and the chicken seperately.
Tried it the otherway first but I over chopped the bacon and it made it rather gritty.
Edit: Forgot to mention, when cooking for 10 mins without the pasta then with the pasta don't put the measuring cup in. It won't be a soup at the end.
We loved this recipe! Also agree about chopping bacon by hand as it was nice to have chunks of bacon.
It's way too much water, I followed the receipe and ended up with more like a carbonara noodle soup
Quick and easy. A great standby when time is short as its ingredients you have in the cupboard and can easily mix and match with the vege's.
