Protein Penne Bolognese

May 2

Instructions:

Prep the Water:
In a large pot, bring 12 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat.
Cook the Noodles:
Carefully add the noodles to the boiling water. Set a timer for 9 minutes, occasionally stirring to prevent sticking. Adjust the heat as necessary to maintain a gentle boil.
Brown the Beef:
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula. Sprinkle the garlic powder and a pinch of salt over the beef. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3-4 minutes or until the beef starts to brown.
Add Onion:
Mix in the finely chopped onion to the beef, continuing to cook. Stir the mixture regularly until the onion is golden brown and the beef is thoroughly cooked, about 5 more minutes.
Strain the Noodles:
Once the noodles are al dente (soft but with a slight bite), drain them in a colander and set aside.
Combine Sauce and Beef:
Pour the garlic marinara sauce into the skillet with the beef and onion mixture. Stir well and let it come to a light bubble. Then, reduce the heat to simmer, letting the flavors meld for 1-2 minutes.
Serve: Divide the cooked noodles among four plates. Top each serving with a generous portion of the meat sauce.
Enjoy: Serve hot, and enjoy your deliciously hearty Egg Noodle Bolognese!
