Creamy Loaded Bacon Cheeseburger Alfredo Pasta Recipe: A Quick and Family-Friendly Dinner
Creamy Loaded Bacon Cheeseburger Alfredo Pasta Recipe
If you are looking for a delicious, hearty, filling, cheesy, and creamy meal, you will want to try this Loaded Bacon Cheeseburger Alfredo Pasta. It contains ground beef which is cooked until browned, creamy alfredo sauce, crispy bacon, and stringy cheese. I used healthier options such as whole wheat pasta, reduced fat cheese and I always buy 90/10 ground beef. This meal was fairly simple to make and the perfect meal for those busy weekdays!
This easy alfredo pasta recipe was really really good. Jace ate everything except the ground beef but I loved it so I wanted to share it with you guys! Kevin sent me this cheeseburger pasta recipe and it's from Easy Recipes by Cren on Facebook.

This week was much busier than usual (I got a flat tire, went to the grocery store several times, and had to take Jace to the doctor) so I wanted to resort to a quick, easy, and family-friendly meal. This creamy bacon cheeseburger alfredo pasta did the trick. Jace loves alfredo (loves, loves, loves) and, although this sounds like quite the combination, it was surprisingly really good.
Why You Will Love the Creamy Bacon Cheeseburger Alfredo Pasta Recipe
This pasta is full of flavor. It combines browned ground beef with crispy bacon, soft and decadent pasta, creamy alfredo sauce, and ooey gooey cheese that will completely melt in your mouth.
Although this recipe isn't deemed as healthy, I used healthier options for those that are health conscious like myself. I used 90/10 ground beef, a no sugar added bacon (which you should be able to find at your local grocery store), whole grain pasta instead of regular, and reduced fat cheese. If you want to choose a healthier alfredo sauce, Primal Kitchen has no dairy sauces as well.
