Recipe Notes

  • Try ground turkey or small cooked shrimp for the meat.
  • Try whole-wheat pasta to increase fiber.
  • Use cheddar cheese in place of parmesan.
 

 

 

Ingredients

1⁄2 pound
lean ground beef (15% fat)
1
medium onion, chopped
3 1⁄2 cups

pepper
2 cups
(12 ounces) broken spaghetti

  2. Stir in water, tomato sauce, and spices. Bring to a boil.
  3. Add spaghetti, cover pan, and simmer 10-15 minutes, stirring often to prevent sticking.

If I make regular spaghetti for the family, I get no comments. If I make this recipe, I hear compliments!

So tasty -- the oregano and rosemary make this very savory.  Teenage chefs love how easy this is to make!

Great recipe to add shredded carrots, spinach, bell peppers or whatever veggie I have in the frig.  Love this recipe, a big hit with children and adults!
