INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef
1 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (lasagna noodles)
1/2 cup Low Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Diced Yellow Onion
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and garlic, cooking until fragrant and the onion becomes translucent.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Stir in the tomato sauce and allow it to simmer for a few minutes to meld the flavors.
Add the whole wheat pasta (uncooked) and fresh spinach to the skillet. Pour in a splash of water if necessary to help the pasta cook. Cover and let simmer until the pasta is al dente, about 8-10 minutes.
Once the pasta is cooked and the mixture is thickened, dollop the low fat ricotta cheese over the top. Stir gently to combine and create a creamy texture throughout the dish.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed before serving hot.
