Lean Beef and Whole Wheat Penne with Tomato Spinach Sauce
Sautéed lean beef simmered in a zesty tomato sauce with whole wheat penne and fresh spinach, finished with a sprinkle of savory crushed red pepper.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz 95% Lean Ground Beef
2 oz Whole Wheat Penne
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Marinara Sauce
2 cups Fresh Baby Spinach
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned and fully cooked through.
Drain any excess liquid from the skillet, then pour in the marinara sauce and stir to combine with the beef.
Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 3-5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet and stir gently until the leaves are just wilted.
Drain the cooked penne and toss it directly into the skillet with the beef and tomato spinach sauce.
Mix well to ensure the pasta is evenly coated and serve immediately.
