Description

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• ½ cup water
• 8 oz pasta noodles (I used “Mafalda” noodles but rotini, bowtie, or any similar noodle will work!)
• 1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes - undrained
• 8 oz can tomato sauce
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp dried basil
• ½ tsp oregano
• ½ tsp crushed red pepper
• Salt & pepper, to taste
• 2 cups mozzarella cheese
• ½ cup ricotta cheese -- optional

Directions

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, combine ground beef and onion. Cook until beef is browned and onion until soft.
• Drain excess grease
• Add water, pasta noodles, undrained tomatoes, tomato sauce, garlic powder, oregano, basil, crushed red pepper, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
• Bring contents of pot to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and cook until noodles are cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in ricotta cheese and 1 cup mozzarella cheese, stirring until cheese is melty.
• Top with remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese. Allow it to melt over the top of the dish and then serve.
