Pasta week, day three. What we have here today is a result of leftover bacon and ground beef. Meaty Spaghetti is a quick and simple recipe that you can make on any lazy afternoon or evening.
Meaty Spaghetti
What you’ll need
2 tablespoons canola oil
3 cloves of garlic
2 bulbs of red onions
5 stripes of bacon (add more if you want)
1/4 kilo of ground beef
1 can of peeled canned tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon of ground black pepper
1 tablespoon of italian seasoning
How to do it

2. Cook the bacon to your liking, slice to tiny bits then set aside.
3. On a medium sized non stick sauce pan, heat the Canola oil over medium heat. Saute the garlic until golden brown. Add the onions and cook until translucent.
