Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Meat Sauce

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.

  3. 3

    Add the Meat

    Increase the heat to medium-high, add the ground beef, and cook until browned. Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks.

  4. 4

    Combine with Tomatoes

    Stir in the canned diced tomatoes, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for about 15 minutes.

    Add Peas

    Add the frozen peas to the sauce and stir well. Cook for another 5 minutes until the peas are heated through.

  6. 6

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

  7. 7
