INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef (93% lean)
0.33 cup Dry Orzo Pasta
0.5 cup Homemade Tomato Sauce
1 cup Cauliflower Florets
1 tsp Olive Oil
0.25 cup Diced Yellow Onion
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Toss the cauliflower florets with half the olive oil, salt, and pepper; place on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
While the cauliflower roasts, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion with a splash of water or a tiny bit of oil and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula, and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Stir in the homemade tomato sauce to the beef and onion mixture. Allow the sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes, letting the flavors meld. Season with salt, pepper, and your favorite dried herbs (such as basil or oregano).
Meanwhile, cook the orzo in a pot of boiling water according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Combine the cooked orzo with the beef tomato sauce mixture, stirring well to mix.
Plate the orzo and beef mixture and top with the roasted cauliflower. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil if desired for extra flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
