Now that spring has finally arrived, the plants and trees have again begun to sprout and grow and turn a vibrant green color. This is often celebrated in Sweden with nettle soup as nettles are one of the earlier signs of spring and chock full of vitamins and minerals.

Last weekend me and [personal profile] t_fischer went for a walk and brought back some nettles with us -- and turned them into fantastic, spring-y tasting soup.

I like pasta and I like recipes that whip up quick and easy. Spaghetti Carbonara is one of them, this time tossed together with what I had in the fridge. Serves 2-4 people, depending on how hungry they are ^^
