Bacon Cheeseburger Pasta

This recipe came from an issue (I don't remember which), of Quick Cooking.  It is simple, easy to prepare, and very delicious.  The only change that I make to it, is making my own Tomato Soup, using:

1/4 cup Butter
1/4 cup Flour
3 oz. can Tomato Paste
1 1/2 cups Water 

Melt Butter in a Cast Iron skillet.*  Meanwhile, thoroughly mix Tomato Paste and Water in a measuring pitcher.  When Butter is melted, whisk in Flour until thoroughly combined.  Then add the Water/Tomato mixture about 3 Tablespoons at a time whisking continually.  By adding it a few Tablespoons at a time, it thickens more quickly.  It is done when all the Water/Tomato mixture is stirred in and it is bubbling rapidly.  It should be the consistency of a thick gravy.  Then just replace the Tomato Soup in the recipe with what you have just made.

*You do not have to use a Cast Iron skillet, it just gives the Soup mixture the best taste.
