Ingredients

• 12 oz gluten-free pasta
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 medium onion
• 3 garlic cloves
• 28 oz canned crushed tomatoes
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp dried basil
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 0.5 cup parmesan cheese
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gluten-free pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Meanwhile, finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. This should take about 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion to the skillet with the ground beef and sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3 minutes.

Step 5

Stir the minced garlic into the skillet and sauté for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the crushed tomatoes, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to a simmer and allow the sauce to cook for about 15 minutes to let the flavors blend and the sauce thicken.

Step 8

Combine the cooked gluten-free pasta with the beef sauce in the skillet, tossing to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.

Step 9

Serve the pasta hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley for an added touch of flavor.
