Delicious Homemade Pasta in 3 Easy Steps

I think we can all agree pasta is comfort food 🍝
With meat sauce, it’s a hearty, satisfying dish and not unhealthy or fattening depending on your ingredients (or portions ;)

I use 1/2 lbs lean (90% fat-free) minced meat in my bolognese sauce & make meatballs with the other half.

I begin by dicing veggies— such as celery, red peppers, onions and garlic — then I sauté them for 5 minutes or so on medium heat in olive oil.

---

---

When my onions are translucent and celery and peppers lose their crunch, I add the minced meat and some spices : salt, pepper, oregano & maybe chili if you like it spicy 🌶

---

---

Mix in the minced meat with sautéed vegetables and let it cook till the meat browns.

After around 10 minutes —stirring, occasionally— your meat should look this color. (Try not to overbook it, because you still have to add sauce).

---

---

Depending on time you have and how committed you are, you can add sauce from a jar (Arabiata is a favorite in our household) or you can boil down tomatoes.

Lately, we try to use fresh pasta, which cooks in a few minutes.

Lastly, sprinkle some cheese — we use Parmesan— and add a side of greens to ease the guilt 😋

Bon Appétit 👨🏻‍🍳
