6 oz ground beef (93% lean)

1.5 oz whole wheat spaghetti

0.5 cup tomato puree

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 clove garlic

0.5 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp parmesan cheese

PREPARATION

• 1

  Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.

• 2

  While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until fragrant and translucent.

• 3

  Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until completely browned and no longer pink.

• 4

  Stir in the tomato puree, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes to develop the flavors.

• 5

  Drain the spaghetti and add it directly to the skillet, tossing well to coat every strand in the rich meat sauce.

  Serve warm in a shallow bowl, topped with a tablespoon of freshly grated parmesan cheese.
