Ingredients

For the Pasta

  • 12 oz fettuccine pasta This sturdy pasta is perfect for holding onto the creamy Alfredo sauce.

For the Meat and Bacon

  • 6 strips bacon Crispy bacon adds an irresistible crunch and smoky flavor.
  • 1 lb ground beef Lean ground beef provides heartiness and a protein boost.

For the Sauce

  • 2 cups heavy cream Creates a wonderfully creamy Alfredo sauce.
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese Adds a sharp, cheesy flavor.
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Enhances the richness of the sauce.

For Flavor

  • 2 cloves garlic Fresh minced garlic brings a fragrant touch.
  • 1/2 tsp salt Essential for enhancing overall flavors.
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper Adds balance to the rich flavors.

For the Garnish

  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions Provides a beautiful garnish and slight crunch.

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Begin by boiling a large pot of salted water. Add fettuccine pasta and cook according to package instructions, typically about 10-12 minutes, until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chopped bacon until crispy, around 6-8 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  • In the same skillet, add ground beef. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Pour in heavy cream, then add shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir and cook until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens, around 3-5 minutes.
  • Gently add the cooked fettuccine and crispy bacon to the creamy sauce. Toss until the pasta is thoroughly coated.
  • Season with salt and black pepper. Sprinkle with chopped green onions before serving.

Notes

Optional: Add diced tomatoes for a burst of freshness.
