Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Add 10 cups warm water and 2 tsp salt to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices. Add peppers and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to an unlined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Roast peppers in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender, 14-16 min.
Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then pork. Cook, breaking up pork into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.**Carefully drain and discard excess fat.Season pork with salt and pepper, to taste.
Meanwhile, add spaghetti to the boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min. Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water, then drain and return spaghetti to the same pot, off heat.
