INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/4 cup Enchilada Sauce
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1/4 medium Onion, chopped
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Cumin
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until soft and fragrant.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet. Season with salt, pepper, and cumin, and cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, breaking it up as it cooks.
Stir in the enchilada sauce with the beef, allowing the flavors to meld for a couple of minutes.
Combine the cooked pasta with the beef mixture in a baking dish. Top evenly with reduced-fat cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the dish is bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
