Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef
• 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
• 12 oz pasta (rotini, penne, or your preferred choice)
• 2 cups Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional: chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions:

1. Cook the pasta:
   • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. Prepare the bacon and ground beef:
   • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease, then crumble and set aside.
   • In the same skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain any excess fat.
   • Season the beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Combine pasta and sauce:
   • Lower the heat to medium and add the Alfredo sauce to the cooked ground beef. Stir well to combine.
   • Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and mix everything together until the pasta is well-coated with the sauce.
4. Add cheese:
   • Stir in the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, allowing them to melt into the sauce. Once the cheese has fully melted and the sauce is creamy, remove from heat.
5. Top with bacon:
   • Sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the pasta and gently stir to combine, reserving some bacon for garnish if desired.
6. Serve:
   • Plate the pasta and garnish with additional bacon bits and chopped parsley if desired.
