Ingredients
  

8 oz fettuccine or pasta of choice

1 lb ground beef

6 slice crispy cooked bacon, chopped

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup beef broth

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

½ cup diced tomatoes (optional)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Brown the Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season with onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Drain excess fat if necessary.

      Add Garlic and Bacon: Stir in minced garlic and chopped bacon into the skillet with the beef, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

        Make the Alfredo Sauce: Reduce the heat to low and pour the heavy cream and beef broth into the skillet. Stir well to combine. Gradually add shredded cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and smooth.

          Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat evenly in the creamy sauce. If the mixture is too thick, add a bit more beef broth or a splash of pasta water to reach the desired consistency.

            Add Fresh Elements: Fold in the diced tomatoes, if using, for a fresh touch. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.

              Serve and Garnish: Spoon the creamy loaded bacon cheeseburger Alfredo pasta into bowls. Garnish with fresh parsley and extra cheese if desired.
