Summer Time Beef Pasta

Print Recipe
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 spaghetti squash halved lengthwise
  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 4 vine-ripened tomatoes chopped
  • 2 sun-dried tomatoes chopped
  • 2 medium zucchini chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary crushed

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place spaghetti squash halves, flesh sides up, on a baking sheet; bake for 30 minutes or until squash is tender; set aside to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook ground beef and onion until beef is no longer pink and onion is tender; drain any grease from the pan and season with salt and pepper. Add remaining ingredients and cook until zucchini is tender and tomatoes have reduced.
  • Scoop the seeds out of the squash then, using a fork, scrape the squash out of its shell in long, thin (spaghetti-like) strands.
  • Serve sauce over squash “noodles”.
