6 servings
- 8 ounces rotini (penne, or other medium pasta)
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 onion (diced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- ½ g reen bell pepper (diced)
- 14 ounces canned diced tomatoes (with juices, 1 can)
- 2 cups pasta sauce
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon thinly sliced fresh basil leaves (or to taste, as garnish)
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley (or to taste, as garnish)
Steps
Brown beef, onion, and garlic in a skillet over medium-high heat until no pink remains. Drain fat.
While the beef is browning, cook pasta in salted water just until al dente. Drain but do not rinse.
Add green pepper to the ground beef and cook 3-4 minutes or until it begins to soften. Stir in tomatoes, sauce, and Italian seasoning. Simmer until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
Stir in cooked pasta and simmer an additional 2-3 minutes or until heated through.
Mix ricotta and parmesan cheese. Top the skillet with dollops of cheese mixture. Add the mozzarella around the ricotta and cover until melted. Garnish with herbs if desired.
