Ingredients

Scale

For the 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 teaspoons salt
  • ¾ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 ½ (24-ounce) jars spaghetti sauce

For the Pasta:

  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 16 ounces spaghetti

For the Alfredo Sauce:

  • ½ cup (1 stick) butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 ½ cups Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Make the Red Sauce:

    • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened.
    • Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
    • Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon.
    • Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
    • Pour in the spaghetti sauce and stir to combine. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Set aside.
  2. Cook the Pasta:

    • In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add 1 tablespoon of salt. Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  3. Make the Alfredo Sauce:

    • In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
    • Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
    • Gradually add the heavy cream, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
    • Lower the heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese. Continue stirring until the cheeses are fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
  4. Assemble the Dish:

    • In a large serving dish, layer the cooked spaghetti.
    • Pour the red sauce over the pasta, followed by the Alfredo sauce.
    • Mix everything together gently until the pasta is coated with both sauces.
  5. Serve:

    • Garnish with extra Parmesan and mozzarella cheese if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • For a lighter version, you can substitute ground turkey for the beef and use light cream instead of heavy cream for the Alfredo sauce.

 

  • You can also add extra vegetables like mushrooms or spinach to the red sauce for added flavor and nutrition.
