Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Wooden spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (14 ounces) diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 8 ounces dry pasta
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Grated parmesan cheese for serving

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
  • Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the onion softens.
  • Pour in the diced tomatoes and beef broth. Stir in the Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
  • Add the dry pasta and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook for 12 to 15 minutes. Stir once or twice during cooking until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
  • Remove the pot from the heat. Serve the pasta hot with grated parmesan cheese on top.

Notes

If the pasta absorbs too much liquid while simmering, add a splash more broth to loosen the sauce before serving. Leftovers reheat well in a skillet with a little extra broth to bring back the creamy texture.
