Ingredients
-
-1 pound of lean ground beef
-2 cups (1 can) stewed tomatoes
-garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and any other desired seasonings
-1/2 cup red wine
-2 cups chopped eggplant (1 medium size eggplant)
-1 cup chopped portobello mushrooms
-3 cups gnocchi (generally 1 package fresh), cooked according to package directions
Directions
In a large pan, sprayed with an olive oil aerosol product (PAM makes a good one), brown the ground beef along with the garlic over medium-high heat. When the beef is still a little pink, add the eggplant and mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until both begin to give up their juices (about 3-5 minutes). Add the red wine and allow to boil away for about 1 minute.
Add the tomatoes and spices, bring to a low boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat, add the cooked gnocchi, and serve.
