Ingredients
  

8 oz. penne pasta

4 slices of bacon, chopped

1 lb ground beef

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/4 tsp salt

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup chopped green onions

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: Boil a large pot of salted water. Add the penne pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Prepare the Bacon: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the chopped bacon. Cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon and place it on paper towels to drain the excess fat. Leave about 1 tablespoon of bacon grease in the skillet.

      Cook the Beef: In the same skillet, add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-6 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.

        Sauté Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

          Create the Sauce: Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in the heavy cream and bring it to a simmer. Add Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir well.

            Add Cheeses: Gradually mix in the cheddar and Parmesan cheeses, stirring until melted and smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water or additional cream.

              Combine Everything: Add the cooked penne pasta to the sauce, along with the cherry tomatoes and crispy bacon. Toss until the pasta is well coated with the creamy mixture.

                Serve: Garnish with chopped green onions and fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your loaded bacon cheeseburger Alfredo pasta!
