Ingredients
- 1 pound gluten-free spaghetti
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 (25-ounce) jar gluten-free marinara sauce
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh basil
- Salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 3 ounces gluten-free grated Parmesan cheese
Method
-
Cook gluten-free spaghetti according to package directions. Drain. Toss with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to prevent the noodles from sticking together.
-
As the pasta is cooking, heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a sizeable skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, using a wooden spoon or firm spatula to break apart the ground beef as it cooks.
-
Add your choice of gluten-free marinara sauce and optional basil to the skillet. Simmer for about 15 minutes, until heated through, seasoning to taste with salt and pepper.
-
Serve sauce over warm spaghetti sprinkled with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
