Looking for easy recipes for ground beef that are quick to make and taste great too? Try this quick one-pot meal.
The combination of the salty feta and olives with the vegetables and beef makes this a real winner!
While the pasta is cooking, grate the mozzarella cheese.
The pasta is still cooking!
Put the ground beef, onion, mushrooms, pepper and garlic into a non-stick pot and cook over medium heat until meat is cooked thoroughly and any liquid has evaporated.
Stir in tomatoes, mozzarella, feta, olives, pesto and cooked pasta.
Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
Use penne or another chunky pasta in place of the rotini.
Use any type of pasta instead of whole wheat pasta.
Use canned mushrooms instead of fresh.
Use a green pepper instead of a red pepper.
Use fresh tomatoes and chop them yourself. You'll need about 1 1/2 cups/375 mL.
Go to the deli and get an assortment of olives to slice and use instead of canned black olives. Be sure to remove the pits!
Make your own basil pesto!
If you have a food processor, grate a whole block of mozzarella cheese. Package it in 1/2 cup/125 mL portions and freeze them. Take out a package to thaw when needed.
I highly recommend using a cast iron pot. Cast iron is the best non-stick cookware!
