This is one of the first recipes my mom taught me how to make! It's easy, and very good! Great for when your feeding a lot of your friends. I am going to try this with boca crumbles to see if it is good, would cut down on the fat, and be a super healthy vegan dish!
Ingredients:
-1 onion chopped
-2+1 tablespoons olive oil
-1 lb lean ground beef
-2 cans diced tomatoes
-3 tablespoons tomato paste
-2 cloves minced fresh garlic
-3 small mushrooms cut into very small pieces (opional)
-4 tabelspoons oregano
-2 tablesoons basil
-salt and pepper to taste
-freshly grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
Chop onions into small pieces and saute in a large, deep frying pan for a few minutes until slightly tender. Add minced garlic and saute another minute. Add ground beef, make into small pieces with a spatuala and fry until browned. Add herbs and spices to meat and keep frying for a few minutes while you fry mushrooms in a another little frying pan. Add sauted mushrooms into meat sauce, and stir in the cans of diced tomatoes along with the tomato paste. Bring sauce to a boil, and turn heat down to medium. Let meat sauce cook for about 8 minutes then put on a big pot of boiling water for pasta (whole wheat is great!). By the time your pasta is cooked al dente, the sauce will be ready too! Top with fresh parmesan and enjoy.
