Ingredients
-
1/2 pound dried pasta
1 14.5 ounce can whole tomatoes, incl juice
1 14.5 ounce can stewed tomatoes, incl juice
4 cups fresh spinach
4 ounces 93% lean ground beef
2 Tbsp sugar
S&P to taste
Directions
Cook pasta according to package directions. Just before draining, add spinach directly to the pot, and drain pasta/spinach together. Reserve some cooking liquid (1/4 c max).
While pasta is cooking, brown ground beef (no oil needed), and use kitchen shears to cut tomatoes (can do this in the can).
Return pasta/spinach to hot pot, add all other ingredients. It will be a little soupy at first. Cook on low until the "sauce" reduces down to your satisfaction. Season to taste (I like LOTS of fresh black pepper)
Optional: top w/ shredded parmesan (calories not included)
Serving Size: Makes about 4 1.5 cup servings
Number of Servings: 4
