A quick and easy dinner. Here's how I make it:
1 lb GF pasta noodles, cooked al dente (still firm)
1 jar of your preferred tomato sauce/spaghetti sauce
1/2 lb ground beef, cooked, finely crumbled and drained
Put it all into a large pan or pot. Fill the sauce jar about 1/2 way with water, shake to get the last of the sauce and add to the pot. Add some garlic, dried minced onion, oregano, basil, and any other spices or seasonings you like. For adults I usually add a bit of hot pepper flakes, and for kids I usually add a teaspoon or so of sugar. Cook over medium, stirring frequently, until hot and liquid is cooked down.
Serve with a green salad.
Notes:
-If your pasta is mushy, see my previous post on Cold Rinse and Rice Pasta
-This is one of the ChaRM Plan stars, made using leftover pasta and leftover ground beef. It cooks up in all of about 15 minutes, which makes it perfect for those crazy, hectic days.
