Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup whole wheat pasta
  • 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add ground beef and cook until browned, about 4 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon.

  2. 2

    Drain excess fat, then stir in dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Pour in diced tomatoes (with their juices), beef broth, and pasta. Stir well and bring to a boil.

  4. 4

    Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is al dente.

  5. 5

    Add the fresh spinach and stir until wilted, about 1 minute.

  6. 6

    Remove from heat and mix in mozzarella and Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy.

  7. 7

    Serve hot, garnished with additional cheese if desired.
