Lean Beef and Veggie Pasta with Tomato Sauce
Whole wheat penne tossed with lean ground beef and sautéed zucchini in a rich herb-infused tomato sauce, finished with a drizzle of silky extra virgin olive oil.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Whole Wheat Penne
1.25 oz 95% Lean Ground Beef
0.5 cup Marinara Sauce
1 cup sliced Zucchini
0.5 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
1 tbsp 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 a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the lean ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula until browned and cooked through.
Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside, then add the chopped zucchini and red bell peppers to the same pan, sautéing for 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp.
Lower the heat to medium and stir the cooked beef and marinara sauce into the vegetables, simmering for 3 minutes to meld the flavors.
Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet, tossing well to coat every noodle in the sauce.
Remove from heat and drizzle with the extra virgin olive oil before serving warm.
