- 4 medium zucchini for zoodles save spiralizing for last step
- 1 pound of plant-based ground beef or regular ground beef or ground turkey
- 1 jar Classico Creamy Tomato & Roasted Garlic
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 6 ounces tomato paste optional
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped fine or minced garlic
- ½ white onion chopped
- fresh basil, to taste
- salt and pepper, to taste
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese optional
- Parsley for garnish
Combine ground beef, onion, and garlic in a large sauce pan (or pot *see note). Continue to cook until meat is brown and vegetables are tender. Drain.
Stir diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and tomato sauce into the pan. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
*Note: I use 2 jars of Classico tomato sauce and 1-1.25 pounds of Impossible beef, ground beef, or ground turkey. When I use 2 jars, it's best to use a large pot when preparing sauce.
How to Prepare Zoodles - (save this step for last)
(Per serving)
Spiralize 1 medium or large zucchini. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in pan. Add spiralized zucchini noodles to pan. Lightly sauté over medium-high heat for 3-5 minutes or until you get your desired texture. Be careful with sautéing too long because you don't want to overcook. Also, zucchini releases water so you don't want your zoodles to be too watery. If they are, just drain.
Serve zoodles with a serving of tomato cream sauce and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese and parsley for garnish!
