One-Pan Cheesy Italian Ground Beef and Shells
A comforting one-pan meal with lean Italian ground beef, whole wheat shells, and melty mozzarella merged with zesty tomato sauce and Italian herbs. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner that satisfies without overloading on calories.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Shells (cooked)
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 medium Yellow Onion, diced
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Add the diced onion to the pan and sauté until soft and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the lean ground beef, seasoning with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, and cook until browned and nearly cooked through, breaking it apart with a spatula.
Stir in the tomato sauce and bring to a simmer.
Add the cooked whole wheat shells to the skillet, mixing well so the pasta is fully coated in the sauce.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top and cover the pan, allowing the cheese to melt for about 2-3 minutes.
Give a final stir to combine the melted cheese with the beef and pasta, then serve hot.
