Lean Ground Beef and Tomato Pasta with Steamed Broccoli
Sautéed lean ground beef simmered in a zesty tomato sauce over whole wheat penne, served with a side of vibrant, tender-crisp steamed broccoli.
INGREDIENTS
1.25 oz 95% Lean Ground Beef
1.5 oz Whole Wheat Penne
1.5 cups Broccoli Florets
0.5 cup Marinara Sauce
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, place the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 5-6 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat and add the lean ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon until browned and cooked through.
Drain any excess liquid from the skillet and pour in the marinara sauce, simmering on low for 3-4 minutes to meld the flavors.
Drain the pasta and toss it directly into the skillet with the beef and tomato sauce until well coated.
Serve the pasta warm alongside the steamed broccoli, seasoning with a pinch of sea salt or black pepper if desired.
