INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Ground Beef (90% lean)
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Shell Pasta (cooked)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Canned Diced Tomatoes (No Salt Added)
1 cup Spinach
1/4 cup Diced Onion
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pan, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Add the lean ground beef to the pan, breaking it apart as it cooks. Continue cooking until the beef is browned and cooked through.
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes and let simmer for 3-4 minutes to combine the flavors.
Reduce the heat and mix in the nonfat Greek yogurt, stirring continuously to create a creamy sauce without curdling.
Fold in the spinach and allow it to wilt slightly, then add the cooked whole wheat shell pasta.
Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated in the creamy sauce.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve warm.
