Ingredients

Scale

Red Sauce:

 

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • ½ cup green bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 ½ (24-ounce) jars spaghetti sauce

Instructions

  • Cook the Red Sauce:

    • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and green bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until softened.
    • Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
    • Add the ground beef to the skillet, season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until the beef is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
    • Pour in the spaghetti sauce and stir to combine. Reduce the heat and let it simmer while you cook the pasta.
  • Cook the Pasta:

    • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, about 9-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Make the Alfredo Sauce:

    • In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
    • Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
    • Slowly whisk in the heavy cream, ensuring no lumps form. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then stir in the Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses. Cook until the sauce is smooth and creamy, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Combine the Sauce and Pasta:

    • Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the red sauce and toss to coat.
    • Pour the Alfredo sauce over the pasta and toss everything together until well mixed.

 

  • Serve:

    • Serve the TikTok Spaghetti hot, and garnish with extra Parmesan or fresh herbs, if desired.

Notes

  • Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini to the red sauce for extra flavor.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, add red pepper flakes to the red sauce.

 

  • For a shortcut, you can use store-bought Alfredo sauce instead of making it from scratch.
