Speedy Ground Beef & Tomato Pasta

A classic kid-friendly pasta dish with a simple, savoury meat sauce. Perfect for a busy start to the week!

Cooking instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain any excess fat.
Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook for 3-5 minutes until onion softens.
Stir in crushed tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for 10-15 minutes, allowing flavours to meld.
Drain pasta and add directly to the skillet with the meat sauce, tossing to combine. Serve immediately, topped with grated Parmesan cheese.
