Instructions

1. Roughly chop your veggies, then toss into a food processor to finely mince.
2. Warm olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add your ground meat, then crumble and brown for about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Meanwhile, cook your pasta.
4. Add chopped veggies and stir into the ground meat. Add minced garlic (or 1/4 tsp garlic powder) and sauté another minute.
5. Add marinara sauce. If you like your meat sauce a little saucier, you can add more. Give everything a stir. Reduce heat to low and let cook for another 5 minutes or until the ground meat is cooked through.
6. Add cooked pasta into the pan with the sauce and give everything a toss. Divvy into bowls and top with freshly grated parmesan on top. Enjoy!
