Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Gluten-free macaroni
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 14.5 oz Diced tomatoes
- 2 tbsp Tomato paste
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp Dried oregano
- 1 tsp Dried basil
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gluten-free macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional 1 minute, stirring frequently.
Increase the heat to high and add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Break up the meat with a spatula as it cooks.
Once the beef is browned, reduce the heat to medium and stir in the diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Mix well to combine.
Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, stirring to combine all ingredients.
Add the dried oregano, basil, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir to incorporate the spices.
Allow the mixture to simmer on medium-low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to let the flavors meld together.
Add the cooked gluten-free macaroni to the skillet and stir until all ingredients are well mixed and heated through.
Remove from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and evenly distributed.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if using, before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your gluten-free macaroni and beef!
