Spaghetti alla carbonara is another amazing vanlife recipe from @vwt4_furbone_. This italian recipe uses guanciale, similar to pancetta. However, rather than being cut from pork belly guanciale is cut from pork cheek. If you are unable to find this then you can substitute it for bacon, which will still be super tasty. It is quick to cook, making it great for a hungry family in the van.
