Lean Beef and Vegetable Pasta Skillet
Lean beef and whole wheat penne sautéed with crisp zucchini and peppers in a light marinara, finished with a sprinkle of fragrant fresh basil.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces 95% Lean Ground Beef
1.25 ounces Whole Wheat Penne
1 cup sliced Zucchini
0.5 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
0.25 cup Marinara Sauce
0.5 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove minced Garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a small pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula, and cook until browned and no longer pink.
Stir in the minced garlic, zucchini, and red bell pepper, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the marinara sauce and the cooked pasta.
Toss everything together for 1-2 minutes until heated through and well combined.
Serve immediately, garnished with fresh basil or black pepper if desired.
